    Which nations have banned shark finning?

    I tried to google for a complete list but I couldn't do it. Can people just list the nations that they know have banned them?

    AFAIK, there is no US Shark Fin ban, yet.

    Proposed shark fin ban makes waves in US | News.com.au

    Washington is chewing on the Shark Fin ban.
