In honor of it being shark week, and my love of sharks, I decided to write a shark blog.

Now, I’m not going to say I’m a shark expert, but some people probably consider me one. I’m able to identify most sharks just by simply looking at them. Watch.

That is a shark. 100 percent a shark.

That is not a shark.

In fact, it’s a Mahi Mahi. The fish so nice they named it twice.

That is a shark.

This is not a shark. That is Nemo.

Now that I’ve shown you my credentials, let’s get to the meat of this.

Sharks are very misunderstood creatures. I say creatures because technically a shark is not a fish. A Mahi Mahi is a fish. It’s also a taco. Nemo is also a fish. But not a taco.

Sharks are mostly pescatarian, as their diet consists mostly of seafood. Every now and then though they get their fins on some delicious human meat, but that isn’t normally part of their diet.

Some people think sharks are bad or evil because they attack people when in reality it’s often a case of mistaken identity. You see, the shark thinks you’re food, because you are where he eats. That’s like a hot dog landing on my dinner plate and being mad at me for taking a big old bite out of it. When in reality if that hot dog wanted to stay alive- he would have never landed on my plate.

Here are some more shark facts:

Sharks can see better than most humans at night.

Sharks come from eggs I think.

Sharks have a sense of smell.

Sharks have feelings, like you and I.

So next time you see a shark attacking someone, remember, that shark is someone’s daughter or son, just like the person they’re accidentally eating.
