I’m on a shipwreck in the Florida Keys, 6 miles offshore and 100 feet underwater. All the megafauna are maimed and mangled with hooks. This reef shark has one in her cheek. She’s dragging at least 10 feet of fishing line.

My friend Coral, a young goliath grouper, resident to a reef in the Florida Keys. There were once countless groupers here, of all different species. They’ve been hunted nearly to extinction. Like the few living coral formations on her reef, she survives here in defiance of us.

Florida is taking extreme measures to stop cities from passing shark fishing bans, announcing it will now consider them illegal, after nearly 20 years of respecting local regulations. Meanwhile blatant shark poaching videos fill the internet & FWC refuses to enforce state laws.

Every time this ridiculous corporate talking point goes viral, I will repost this video of Kanpur, where the Ganges runs black with poison discharge from leather tanning and people develop cancer as children.

It’s critical to shut down this dangerous narrative that ICE is undertrained. Law enforcement training teaches cops to fear the public and kill civilians with confidence. They don’t need to be trained, they need to be tried.

Seen these videos going around of “shark rescues”? They’re all staged for clicks — and sharks are being killed to make them. In this video, I review evidence of hundreds of instances of illegal shark poaching on social media. Sign our petition:
