Supporters and volunteers from WildAid Hong Kong and Hong Kong Shark Foundation assembled outside the United Parcel Service (UPS) Customer Centre in Lai Chi Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong, at 11am on Saturday 11 July 2015 to protest this global freight delivery company continued shipments of endangered shark fin to Hong Kong.
