yep. its Ilegall
The other person who first answered/edited above is definitely incorrect. First of all around the world only 17 countries have banned shark finning around there coasts. Globally every other country than the 17 countries that have banned it it is perfectly legal to fin sharks.
But besides these facts other countries there are some other countries that do have some regulations but are so poor that they are in essence useless...
But to answer this question no, shark finning is not banned.

No. Regardless of whether a state is on the ocean, shark finning is illegal in the United States. What's more important now, especially in landlocked states, is whether trade of shark fins is legal. If it's legal to buy or sell shark fins in Nevada that will contribute to shark finning elsewhere, including other countries with lax laws. So far a few U.S. states have banned shark fin trade. I don't think Nevada is one of them.

Shark finning mostly happens in Costa Rica where they use the funs as soup. And the shark fin soup is a sign of wealth. And we should stop this.
Nothing, it is illegal to trade in shark teeth or products. ============================================== I am not finding anything that indicates it is illegal to trade in shark teeth or shark products. The U.S. and other countries have banned shark finning where the shark's fins are cut off and the rest of the body is tossed away - but that has not banned shark fishing. The sale of imported shark fins is not necessarily banned by the same countries that ban finning. I also cannot find anything that shark products are banned everywhere. That is a country-by-country issue. In the US, some states - but not all - have banned the sale of shark fins. So you need to check your local and national laws. Now back to the teeth. The value of the teeth will really depend upon size and condition. You can look at sites that are selling them to see what they are asking. You should definitely do more research.
Shark finning is the practice of catching sharks, cutting off (and keeping) the fins, and throwing the rest of the shark back into the ocean. Shark fins are regarded as a delicacy in some cultures.
I don't think so because it's still happening. But just like all you animal lovers out there i too hope that that day isn't far off
All over the world, but mostly in Asia
Because people can make money from collecting, selling and trading with the fins.
It is illeagal to sell shark fins in the state of Tennessee . The law was made in 2010 even though we don't usually have alot food with shark fins in it the state wanted to be sure to indicate that it is wrong to sell,buy,or trade shark fins. Even though there is still shark finning going on Tennessee and california helped stop shark finning
Shark finning. ALL sharks are seeing a decline in numbers as shark finning is threatening their chance of survival.
