CNN's Shark Finning Report

As part of CNN's Planet in Peril series, Lisa Ling delivers a story about the impacts of shark finning. For those of you who are already in the know about the brutal practice of finning sharks, there's not much newsworthy in Ling's text here, but it's still good to see the issue getting major media attention.

And the video portion is eye-opening; there's a peek at Ling's trip to Cocos Island, a front in the battle for shark conservation. See the full story tonight at 9 p.m., ET on CNN.
