Shark Special

Shark Special Steve studies and swims with sharks, the top marine predators. Although ancient, they're not primitive but so well adapted the formula, with many variations, never needed to change. Their electric super-sense locates even immobile prey just by its heartbeat, the hammer shark's broad nose allows multiplying such sensors. No predator is feared more, yet even great Whites rarely attack humans, except mistaking someone for fish. Shark species however are under great threats from humans hunting them, notably for fin soup, and environmental damage.
