"The Revelation, Shark Week # 2 " - Karina Petroni: Escape Aro

After swimming with sharks in 50 feet of crystal clear tropical blue water while holding her breath, Karina had a revelation after taking an intimate look at the reality, both good and bad, of our constant toothy companions... Sharks are such amazing creatures that deserve the same environmental protection as any other sea creature. These caribbean reef sharks would certainly prefer eating fish, but still Karina was almost bitten several times, and did receive a love bite on her bum because of her inexperience while swimming with them. Like most wild creatures, particularly predators, you don't ever want to underestimate a sharks abilities.
Join Karina on another Escape Around the World as she works to protect our oceans and preserve the sea's many diverse wonders, Yes, even sharks!

-Sharks attack and kill between 12 and 25 people per year, people kill approximately 100 million sharks (about 600,000 tons) per year. Many of these shark deaths are the result of fisherman cutting off all the shark's fins while they are alive. The finless sharks are then thrown overboard to drown. All because shark fin soup is a delicacy in some countries.
