Mental Assessment

This animal is vigorously inquisitive, aggressive, and quarrelsome.

Hunting assessment

Shark-fu is an aggressive and inquisitive animal. His primary diet consists of other fish. This diet ranges from large tuna to other sharks. Larger take-downs are possible, as recent analysis have shown this animal stalking Blue Whales—where it will then rip into tender areas such as gills, anuses, and throat grooves to devour them from the inside out; this is where the alias "Hyena of the Sea" originated.

Scientific name

Carcharodon comes from the Greek words "karcharos," which means sharp or jagged, and "odous," which means tooth. Anguilliformes comes from the Latin word anguilla, which literally means "eel." Anguilliformes's modern definition is an elongate fish with pelvic fins and girdle absent or reduced.
