Each year, fishermen catch millions of sharks, cut off their fins, and dump the bodies into the ocean to die. The fins are used to make shark fin soup, an Asian delicacy sold in many countries. Recently, a team of scientists and environmental groups collected soup from restaurants across the United States and analyzed the soups' genetic make-up. They found endangered species on the menu.
每年漁民們都會殺死幾百萬只鯊魚,割下它們的鰭片,并把鯊魚丟回海里導致鯊魚因沒有鰭而死亡 。割下來的鯊魚鰭會用來熬成魚翅湯,這種亞洲美食在世界許多國家都有餐廳出售 。最近,一群科學家和環保人員組成的小組收集了美國各家餐館的魚翅湯,并分析了這些鯊魚的基因,發信鯊魚物種正瀕臨滅絕 。
