Shark Fin
A certain breed of shark that swims in the sea
provides an expensive Chinese delicacy.
Many connoisseurs find this ingredient tasty.
It is used to make soup most commonly.
Not very much of these shark fins are sold.
They are rare, and almost worth their weight in gold.
That poor shark is on the brink of extinction
because its fins provide a food of distinction.
