Shark finning in Cayman islands

Although i live in London and was born in Costa Rica I still call Cayman my home as it was were I grew up the most.
But I am ashamed that Cayman which is quite forward thinking would bring shark finning to it's shores.
Although it isn't incredibly recent, as evidence of shark finning has been found in cayman before, it has now raised the notice of researchers assessing the shark populations in the Caribbean.
I just cant believe I am writing this, I have dived with the Cayman sharks and it really didn't seem a very big issue if at all an issue.
The only good thing that this has brought it now more people in the islands are aware of the plight of the sharks, hopefully this will encourage the ban of shark finning rather then encourage people to fin.
