Hawaii is considering being the first to develop legislation to ban the killing of any sharks and rays in its considerable waters (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2019/feb/08/hawaii-law-shark-ray-ban-ocean). This might be the only way to stop the destruction of these ancient beasts (many of which are apex predators). I suspect, however, that there will be problems with the fishing and tourism communities. It will also be quite expensive to 'police' the ban.
