The video, posted on YouTube,
portrays Caribbean reef sharks as beautiful, graceful creatures that
comprise a valued centerpiece attraction of island eco-tourism
operations. Romeiro produced the video after learning these same sharks might soon fall victim to large-scale slaughter.

The Bahama Tribune reported recently
that there are no laws to protect sharks from finning operations, and
that at least one seafood company is considering expanding its cucumber
export business on Andros Island to include the export of shark fins to
Hong Kong.

"All those sharks could be killed," Romeiro complained.
