Look at the teeth on that shark 🦈. He does look like he's smiling, but our interpretation and the shark's natural instincts are a thin line. Be safe. ❤Thank you for sharing.

Dont sharks like this smiling beauty have sensor pockets filled with a gel like substance that helps them with both communicating and sensing when somethings just ahead of them? Right across their nose and upper bridge and forehead, these areas with these little gel pockets can also be touched i order that they can be made to totally relax, sleep even when touched there by a human hand, for instance like a doctor that could help fix something wrong on the creature, without getting biten themselves as marine docs repair something of a problem for the shark..like removing netting, fishing hooks and other debris that can encumber or interrupt their swimming habits, but also could affect their abilty to navigate smoothly when they continually hunt for food...they never sleep, and I'm to understand that many shark species are also blind as well. Fascinating 💯
Thanks for the smiles, he looks totally happy and comfy at the same time!!!

Shark: this is not a smile, I’m ready to chow down.

[corywright]
