The sand tiger shark, a fish that could use a makeover or a name change, has been a social media star in recent months.
These big, beady-eyed and snaggle-toothed sharks have also appeared on television and in newspapers recently as fishermen up and down the the Jersey Shore have hooked and caught them right off the state’s beaches.
“This is the ocean. This is where sharks live,” fisherman P.J. Braun told Fox & Friends last month after reeling in a 7-foot sand tiger in Sea Isle City.
