Yao says no more shark fin soup
Yao Ming has sworn off shark's fin soup, a bit of a delicacy in China, and joined a wildlife protection campaign.
"Endangered species are our friends," Yao said on Wednesday at a news conference organized by the San Francisco-based conservation group WildAid.Wonder if this will have a big impact on the younger generations in his homeland?
A television commercial shown at Yao's news conference featured him jumping up from a basketball court to block a bullet fired at an elephant.
