Baby Blacktip Reef shark!

One day that tiny baby will be a big shark able to rip people to shreds

most blacktip reef sharks are no more than 5.5ft long when mature. not only that, blacktip reef sharks are timid and shy, with no fatal human attacks documented. don’t comment stuff like this on my posts, save it for another post and stay off mine. thanks

gagged!

In fact, the blacktip reef shark is in much more danger from humans than humans from it (People eat them – they aren’t a commercial fish but they are taken casually by fishermen to feed their families).

There is no recorded case of a blacktip reef shark killing a human being, although they do sometimes bite people – usually if spooked (they’re timid and if given a chance will swim away from reef divers). They’re also one of the most social species of shark.

And that one is adorable.
