Two young men in Florida have posted a video of a live shark being dragged by the tail at high speeds behind their boat. The animal is clearly being abused.
Florida officials are investigating and have identified the young men.
The Governor has gotten involved.
The video is upsetting. You know the shark is suffering.

I hope they can lay some charges. Certainly Florida is taking this seriously.
There is talk of reviewing their laws to make sure they are strong enough to protect marine animals.
So everything is being done to deal with this.
What I can't understand is why they did it and why did they think it was funny.
These are disturbed individuals. They abused an animal and posted it on the internet for everyone else to see.
We are seeing a lot of incidents of abusers posting videos. They are no longer ashamed of what they do. They want everyone to see their sick behavior. This is something we should be worried about.
