shark meat

anyone ever used fresh(not treated with anything at all, not even frozen) shark meat in their fish food. any opinions on this?

 

Most shark species are endangered or close to it due to shark finning for the asian market and you really shouldn't be buying, eating or feeding anything containing shark products!!

 

ok i didn't realized that. i saw it for sale at the market so i was just wondering. it was the black tip reef shark. i don't they are endangered though.

 

they will be if people keep catching them

 

Quote: (not my words)

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) has assessed the blacktip reef shark as Near Threatened. Although the species as a whole remains widespread and relatively common, overfishing of this slow-reproducing shark has led to its decline at a number of locales.

not saying anything about the ethics of buying their meat... just pointing you to the info for your own use.

 

ok, well i didn't buy it anyway. i was just thinking of stuff that i could use to make fish food.

 

What is the best shark to catch and eat? I have read that the bonnethead shark is not very tasty. Any suggestions?

I have eaten mako shark steak a time or two, its really not bad.. it was fed to me while a guest at a home, so I didn't really want to offend the host. When I take the boat offshore and I hook up a shark, I always cut the line at the boat. they are such a beneficial species and should be left to keep things in check..
