Tons of shark carcasses discovered
Tons of shark carcasses (blue shark and mako) have been discovered aboard the 'Playa Zahara' in the waters of French Polyneasia. A complaint has been filed against the captain by the federation of environmental protection associations which hopes that Polynesia will be respected as a sanctuary for certain marine species. The ship's cargo was to be transferred to another Spanish ship of the same company on Nov 2, 2021 in order to leave French Polynesia quickly. The transport of sharks, dead or alive, is strictly prohibited in French Polynesia, by virtue of article Lp. 2211-3 of the environment code.
