tiger shark

The tiger shark tossed his snout from side to side, trying to pick up traces of blood. He snapped up a salmon and some mackerel, but he was still hungry. Suddenly, a strong scent of blood came to his nostrils. He zoned in on the smell. An octopus flailed its tentacles as four cod swam around it, occasionally darting in and biting a tentacle. Clouds of thick black ink billowed out at the cod and they flipped right over themselves. A pair of toothy jaws suddenly appeared from the inky blackness, snapping up two of the three cod and tearing a fifteen-pound chunk from the octopus's head.
