Maybe a more endangered fish will eat the shark.

Cruelty is the worst trait of humans, the supposedly intelligent, enlightened species “made in the image and likeness of God.” Phooey!

I was fishing at a pier in the Hampton Roads area and someone caught a skate. The guy instead of asking for help because he had an irrational fear of being barbed got out a knife and cut off the tail. I do believe stingrays do not need their tail to swim as the tail is mainly for defense.

The video was taken in Greenland, a Danish territory, and happened after the shark's tail got caught in a fishing line. Both men have since been fired from their fishing jobs and could even face criminal charges, according to local news outlet RUV. Greenland sharks do not prey on humans and are listed as an endangered species.

Uh-oh; I squished a black widow spider. Are they endangered? Will massive FRopprobrium/scorn be heaped on me? Maybe not; I didn’t make a video. Whew!
