    The Unassuming Shark is one of nature’s more dangerous fish, to both predator and prey. Unlike its cousin the Elbow-Mackerel that uses its prehensile elbows to muscle its way in for a kill, the Unassuming Shark has but one distinct feature: the lack of dorsal fin.
    Moving in packs of eight or more alongside larger predators such as the Flamingo Javelinfish or various parasol eels, Unassuming Sharks flank the prey when it notices the protruding dorsal fins of other predators, and steal the kill.
    But how do they detect the eyesight of the prey?
    Going to nightclasses in optometry school on a budget of a toothsome predatory dorsalfinless fish is quite a feat. But to them, it’s a rite of passage that gestures them into spawning and territory rights. Without this proper schooling, the Shark cannot survive just by scavenging off his or her friends, and will perish.
    This cunning hunting behaviour has taken the food from the mouths of these predators time and time again, to the point of pushing species to endangerment or extinction, like the Sloth-Gulper, and many others. They also have claimed the life of several seafaring glasses-makers, making oceanic contact-making a shrinking field in oceanopthomology.
    Assumptions aside, the Unassuming Shark is a formidable hunter, tests well, is prompt, has a great work-ethic, and will make a fine addition to your workforce.
    Please don’t hesitate to call if you have any additional questions about this reference.

    I think he’s happy because he just came from the dentist and only had one cavity. Coming from that mouth, I’d say it’s cause for celebration. His dentist, Dr. Awkward, sent him away with a finful of new brushes to keep his choppers clean.

    Have you seen this? FAO Schwarz will actually make a monster design that you send in to them–it’s called “Make-My-Own-Monster Custom Design Kit.”
