Shark Writing

Shark Writing

HI! I’m Ozzi and i’m a Blacktip Reef Shark! I have 3 friends, Marshall the Megalodon, Sean the sand shark, and Isy the great white. Today we decided to go up to the shallow areas for lunch. Caught a nice old woman on the harbour. Delicious. We used to have a pet angler fish called John. He hasn’t moved for the past few weeks. Ever since Marshall accidentally ate his tail he hasn’t been eating much, or anything. Come to think of it he’s also been sleeping upside down a lot. interesting , maybe he’s just hibernating. We’re not sure if angler fish hibernate though. The waves were rough today and I was nearly caught by some dumb humans who didn’t know how to use a fishing net. Barry the whale shark almost crashed into our reef. He’s terrible at navigating and he almost took out Sean. A massive group of tuna swam past us and were really tasty until some other sharks decided to chase them so we sat on the reef and watched two jellyfish battle it out for a starfish. Woke up the next day to some annoying ‘surf life saving’ boat trying to catch a human. They almost made me want to eat them. But I was too tired and besides, humans taste kind of bad and surf life saving boats are hard to bite. I even considered waking up Marshall because he can take it down easily, but he’d probably eat me if I woke him up. Today we decided to set john free. He didn’t look too good when we took him out of his cage but when we set him free he rushed (or floated either one) all the way to the top. It was sad watching john go but we know that he’s in a better place now. (possibly in the stomach of a whale though). Sean was arguing to Isy this morning about how our cave is WAY too close to the sea turtles path when they migrate and he wanted to move. So we kicked him out to a smaller cave next door and alas we were woken in the middle of the night by an angry Ms. Octopus who came in carrying Sean. All in all, we enjoy being sharks even if pets are set free, octopus don’t like intruders, and humans REALLY like shark fin soup...
