The shark’s reputation precedes him, demonized in the minds of millions, movie-goers jumping, or hiding behind their darkened seats. Predators must hunt, unsmiling and relentless, the prey must die so they can live; for nature’s complexity is for us to understand — not judge. A greater power than Man put this realm together. And as a poet once said: ‘…one may smile, and smile, and be a villain–‘ So step back, you silver-tongued fiends, those who think they know better; Your power is temporal, so brief, whilst the shark’s honest instinct is ageless, only taking its due.
*Quotation from Shakespeare’s Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 5, line 108.
