Toys. Yes, Wally would be thankful for toys. He just loves tearing them up and taking all the stuffing out. This shot shows the calm before the storm. The shark toy was actually one of his presents from his birthday in August, but we just gave it to him now. It's time to give payback to the shark. I'm referring to the photo that was taken on August 12. www.flickr.com/photos/marc_dalangin/9498311968/

Long before the Discovery Channel and it's annual Shark Week shows existed, men's adventure magazines featured great shark stories and artwork on a regular basis. Today's example: the cover of MEN, December 1956. Painting by artist Stanley Borack.

Bought this box of Shark Week bandages at Walmart last night. This year, Shark Week begins on Sunday, July 23 on the Discovery Channel. My son and I have watched Shark Week on television for years and look forward to it every summer. (Posted to Facebook.)
Let’s face it—sharks have a bad rap. Thanks to sensationalized stories and stereotyping, sharks have become feared rather than revered. They’re labeled as dangerous, indiscriminate killers that eat anything in sight. But in fact, sharks are most often the victims. They’re killed by the millions annually to supply demand for their fins, which are made into soup and eaten as a status symbol. Such demand for fins has led to overfishing and illegal fishing, depleting shark populations worldwide.
Let's address and dispel some of the most common shark myths and deliver the facts.
SHARK MYTH #4: NOTHING CAN HURT SHARKS
Shark populations around the world are in rapid decline. Sharks grow relatively slowly, take many years to mature and produce relatively few young. They also suffer from the large and growing demand for shark fins and the general lack of management of shark fishing. Populations simply cannot replenish at the same rate as they are caught and finned to meet market demand. Sharks are also often caught as bycatch in longlines, trawl nets and seine nets, and simply discarded.

Every year tens of millions of sharks die a slow death because of finning. Finning is the inhumane practice of hacking off the shark's fins and throwing its still living body back into the sea. The sharks either starve to death, are eaten alive by other fish, or drown (if they are not in constant movement their gills cannot extract oxygen from the water). Shark fins are being "harvested" in ever greater numbers to feed the growing demand for shark fin soup, an Asian "delicacy".
Not only is the finning of sharks barbaric, but their indiscriminate slaughter at an unsustainable rate is pushing many species to the brink of extinction. Since the 1970s the populations of several species have been decimated by over 95%. Due to the clandestine nature of finning, records are rarely kept of the numbers of sharks and species caught. Estimates are based on declared imports to shark fin markets such as Hong Kong and China.

Jaws Movie Poster - UPDATED
I tweaked the top of the 'W' and replaced the two red 2x2 tiles with two red 1x3 tiles, to smooth out the top of the 'W'. After some feedback about the nose, I made Bruce the Shark one brick deeper, this meant that the nose now no longer juts out over his top lip.
Not quite the vicious maneaters they're made out to be - these sharks are actually quite friendly! :D

Sharks are efficient predators with a highly developed sense of smell, hearing and sight. They can detect their prey’s scent from a great distance. Their sensitive eyes see clearly even in the dim light of the ocean depths. Sharks are carnivorous. Most eat fish, including other sharks, as well as larger animals such as seals.
Caught for their jaws, teeth, leather and fins, which collect high prices and are in demand worldwide, great white sharks also face the threat of accidental capture in fishing gear, and animals that survive are often killed for their body parts.
