I wonder how much a shark that size would eat in a day. A lot, I imagine.

Um, why does the source article say 18-foot and the thread title here say 16-foot? The shark grow or shrink? :rofl:

EDIT: Comments section on the site says 16-foot, so damn, WTF? :wacko:

We need to start hunting them. Before they get more aggressive and develop tools or legs or something....
