Sharks keep the
measure of diversity of species in the sea in balance and guarantee that no species
can increase and expand uncontrolled.
Most of the predators in this world with a weight more than 50 kilogram are sharks.
For nearly 400 million years they do their "job" as sea police by removing
ill and hurt animals and also contributing to the genetic stability of the individual
kind of fish.
Today much more sharks get caught than they can reproduce themselve. Most kinds
reach their sexual maturity only after many |

|
years
where they produce just a few descendants within two or more years.
As sharks are global spread it must be assumed that after their extermination
the consequences will also appear global and not just local. A partial or total
collapse of the individual food chains cannot be excluded.
The resulting consequences for our environment and also for the future of mankind
can only be described as catastrophic and devastating.
