You don't want an shark for a pet!

Big, gray shark are you a fish? You can’t keep one in a dish. A dirty sink will not do at all. A sticky hat is way too small.
You would not want to pay the bill for 1,000 little shrimps that you would need to buy each day if a big, gray shark came to stay.
It’s smaller than a whale but it wouldn’t get in your front door. Its home is in the salty sea, with the shrimps for breakfast, lunch and tea.
