They found a beached shark that had bitten off more than it could chew, yanked the food out of its mouth, and pushed it back into deeper water.

There's no fucking way I would have gotten near a shark's mouth.

It's probably not something I would do. I can only imagine how cold the water the guys were standing in was.

Yes, I am crazy about feathered creatures. I have a dozen chickens, 3 ducks, 5 geese, and 2 parakeets.

Revise that number. Just got 14 new chicks and 5 turkeys.

Most likely the shark was too weak to fight back after having been beached. I doubt they were ever in any real danger.

If it gives em warm fuzzies; let em go for it.

Personally I don't feel emotional about climax predators.

We need all sharks happy and healthy... they are the only critters that would dare bite a politician on the ass
