Costa Rican conservationists say that an executive decree will open their markets to shark fin (particularly hammerhead) exports. “The (conservation) groups decried the Costa Rican President’s decree that grants sole mandate to authorize exports to the Costa Rican Fisheries and Aquaculture Institute (Incopesca), saying the agency is controlled by commercial fisheries and fishermen interests.”

Do you think that this decree will affect the shark fin market in Costa Rica?
