Hawaii

Hawaii was the first state to ban the possession, sale and distribution of shark fins in 2010, with 11 other states following suit later on. This is a win for shark advocates and for environmental activists who condemn the harmful practice of shark finning, which often involves removing the fins and releasing the sharks back into the water, basically to die. Fortunately, shark meat isn't popular in the US, but shark fin soup can still be found in China, where it is considered a delicacy, and the meat is consumed in many other countries as well.
