10/24/2005: Dog becomes shark bait

You know, I've eaten shark and while it's not bad, I wouldn't go out of my way to put it on my plate. The other strange thing about this story is that its mostly the Chinese or those who supply them who are fishing for sharks as a delicacy in sharkfin soup and some other dishes. For most commercial fisherman sharks are a big hassle with little market value, they eat your bait, scare away the fish you want, put up one hell of a fight and most sport fisherman end up cutting the line when they realize what they have hooked.

I guess the moral of this story is that man's existance on this planet really screws up the balance of nature. In a perfect world, dogs and cats and most other creatures reach a balance as far as their population goes, and so do the fisheries of the world.

Guess we've really fucked this world up!
