Back in the 80s, I used to hand hold & hand feed my Smooth Horn Shark. It was very cool. The skin is like really rough leather, very grainy to the touch. Easy to get a grip on this sandpaper-like surface though.

Of course it was only 8" long when I bought it and just under 2' when I sold it. Not a monster at all. Very tame. Never bit.

there was an interesting documentary i guess you could call in on the bbc over xmas and they were talking about fish fin soup and how it needs to be stopped ect, but they followed an old tribe around (cant remember where) that actually call sharks, they basically sit in a boat with a rope and sing then the shark swims by they catch it and eat it... it was worth watching

Oh sure, not gutsy enough to do it without the chainmail gloves. Definately fun to watch, they have been around sharks a long time to understand their behavior patterns. Still can be unpredictable at times. I would love to do a shark dive sometime.
