US authorities have seized 1,400 pounds of shark fins at a port in Miami.

Officials estimate the commercial value of the confiscated goods to be worth up to $1 million.

The shipment of dried fins are thought to have originated in South America and likely bound for Asia.

Conservation groups say tens of millions of sharks are killed each year globally by smugglers.

Shark fins are tempting targets for fisherman because they have high monetary and cultural value. They are used in a popular diah called Shark fin soup, which is a symol of status in Chinese culture.
