    Lovely!!! A dead shark!! Was it an accidental catch or a fishing trip to see who could  catch the biggest shark boost a few egos and assist In the depletion of a struggling species!!!

  2. Such a magnicent creature. It’s terrible to see it  displayed so shamefully. At 84 pounds it was just a kid.

    People just absolutely disgust me!!! i cannot wait for the day that the human race is wiped out (sorry to all the good people out there) and the planet along with all its inhabitants can regenerate and live a long natural life.
