*[Enwl-eng] Endangered sharks are being sold as food in the U.S.

[ecology]

 

Consumers are being misled, and sharks are paying the price. Stop the Sale of Endangered Sharks in U.S. Markets      Sign Now        A disturbing new study has revealed that endangered sharks are being hunted and sold to consumers across the United States. DNA testing found that nearly one-third of shark meat products sampled came from endangered or critically endangered species, including hammerheads and shortfin makos.    Sign the petition to demand immediate action from the FDA and NOAA to ban the sale of endangered shark species and crack down on misleading labeling!   Sharks are not only vital for healthy oceans — regulating entire ecosystems as apex predators — but they are also at grave risk. Populations have already fallen by more than 70% since the 1970s, driven by overfishing, finning, habitat loss, and pollution. Sign the petition to urge regulators to stop the sale of endangered sharks, strengthen labeling laws, and enforce international protections. Thank you, Jess Care2 Petitions Team P.S. Sharks keep our oceans alive. Sign the petition!      Sign Now
