Tiger sharks are the badasses of the sea. They’re a predator that eats almost everything in sight, armed with razor-sharp teeth that can crunch into flesh and bone, including objects as hard as turtle shells (…so says Wikipedia). Â Sadly, because of the high demand for shark fin soup in Asia, these amazing creatures are a near-threatened species thanks to illegal fishing throughout the Pacific. It’s super uncool.
Channeling their inner-ohana, a group of Hawaiians sprung into action when a young tiger shark was beached in a tangle of fishing lines. In under a minute they were able to slice off the line and get it back in the water.
That sharks owes them a fin-dab and a beer. Look at how badass the inside of it’s mouth is.
Something to think about the next time you jump in the water in Hawaii…
