An artist pierced her skin with shark hooks and hung herself from a shop ceiling in protest at the treatment of the animal.Alice Newstead took the drastic action in protest at the practice of finning – where sharks are impaled on hooks, before their fins are sliced off to harvest meat for shark fin soup. The sharks are then thrown back into the ocean still alive.
