Hello All,
In light of the crisis in Palau re shark finning, the team at the Micronesian Shark Foundation, (founded by Tova Bornowski of Fish n Fins), is hoping to initiate an education program for the local Palauans who see sharks as dangerous pests eroding their livelihood and threatening their lives. Clearly this requires action if the current vote to institute such a horrific and barbaric practice as shark finning is to be prevented.
The team is trying to acquire a soft fluffy shark head/suit ; much like a shark mascot costume in order to use at schools etc for discussions, lectures and so on.
Does anyone have any ideas regarding procuring such a costume/shark mask/head cheaply for what is a free educational/charitable foundation to support shark preservation??
 
Seriously, if you do this please take pics and video. Id like to see how it pans out. Just like the somali pirates are using illegal fishing to attack a medical aid ship, these people are using shark fear to perform finning.
