John Land Le Coq, professional photographer and co-founder of Fishpond, Inc., has joined The Humane Society of the United States in speaking out against shark tournaments.
Not only does Fishpond—a major fishing equipment and outdoor manufacturing company—have a passion for the environment; it is committed to practicing responsible stewardship.
According to Le Coq, shark tournaments fueled by money and prizes "are a disgrace to the art of fishing and perpetuate the stereotype of aggression that has shadowed the shark for too long."
If you own a company, you can help The HSUS and Fishpond, Inc. protect sharks by opposing tournaments, too.
