Brazil's appetite for shark meat puts species under threat.
One of the biggest consumers in a global market worth an estimated £2bn, trade in the cheap fish in the south American country is booming. But worried conservationists say most people do not realise they are eating shark.
Research published in April found that 83% of the shark and ray species sold in Brazil were threatened, according to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN) classification.
For years, conservation efforts focused on the fin trade with Asia and the barbaric practice of "finning" - removing a shark's fins and returning the wounded and helpless animal, to the sea. But research from earlier this year suggests restrictions on finning have not reduced shark mortality, with at least 80 million sharks still being killed annually.
"Meat was kind of left by the wayside," says Prof Aaron MacNeil, of Canada's Dalhousie University, who is researching the global shark meat trade. "It's only now we're realising how big the trade is. Its value has certainly exceeded that of fins."

'We can carry on for ever': meet Iceland's last whale hunter
For Kristjan Loftsson, the 80-year-old who is more or less singlehandedly keeping the fin whale hunt alive, comparisons with Moby-Dick's obsessive hero Ahab are 'an honour'. Will opposition to the dying industry finally catch up with him?
For more than five decades Loftsson has stubbornly swum against the tide, whether that be public opinion, domestic regulation or an almost complete international consensus.
Loftsson's home country of Iceland is one of the only countries in the world that defies the International Whaling Commission's ban on commercial whaling, along with Japan and Norway. However, in Norway, the other European outlier, they hunt the minke whale, the populations of which are considered stable.
The continued use off the Icelandic coast of grenade-tipped harpoons to kill fin whales - a species that is one of the world’s largest animals and listed as endangered by the WWF - has naturally been a cause celebre for environmental movements for decades, a symbol to many of humanity's cruel exploitation of nature.

'We can carry on for ever': meet Iceland's last whale hunter
For Kristjan Loftsson, the 80-year-old who is more or less singlehandedly keeping the fin whale hunt alive, comparisons with Moby-Dick's obsessive hero Ahab are 'an honour'. Will opposition to the dying industry finally catch up with him?
For more than five decades Loftsson has stubbornly swum against the tide, whether that be public opinion, domestic regulation or an almost complete international consensus.
Loftsson's home country of Iceland is one of the only countries in the world that defies the International Whaling Commission's ban on commercial whaling, along with Japan and Norway. However, in Norway, the other European outlier, they hunt the minke whale, the populations of which are considered stable.
The continued use off the Icelandic coast of grenade-tipped harpoons to kill fin whales - a species that is one of the world’s largest animals and listed as endangered by the WWF - has naturally been a cause celebre for environmental movements for decades, a symbol to many of humanity's cruel exploitation of nature.
