Fish Quote by Anonymous
““People that survive shark attacks were never attacked. Sharks can tell with a single bite—a short fin mako’s jaws can exert four ton of pressure per square inch—whether they’ll burn more calories digesting the kill than they’ll gain from it. Millions of years of evolution tell them whether to eat you or not.””
