epa03515225 Activists (C) from Hong Kong Shark Foundation stage a protest and holding a banner (R) 'Say No to Shark Fin' at the Fu Sing Shark Fin Restaurant, Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, China, 20 December 2012. According to a 2010 survey by the United Nations International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) 143 out of a total of 430 shark species are listed as globally threatened, and 54% are at high risk of extinction now or in the near future. The consensus in the scientific community is that this is being driven by overfishing and the Asian appetite for shark fin soup.
