SHARKWEEK: Great Hammerhead
Kickin' off Shark Week with a Great Hammerhead! This is for devlexuswolf's Shark Week Sketch Jam on DA.
I probably haven't drawn a hammerhead since I was a little kid. I used to have a bit of an obsession with them thanks to the cover of Goosebumps: Deep Trouble. Hated the story, but loved the shark on the cover.
Great Hammerheads are considered endangered, largely due to over-fishing because it's sought after for its large fins--desirable for shark fin soup.

It is :C Seems a lot of my favorite animals that are in plight, like Gharials, are ignored simply because they're not ~PWECIOUS WITTLE PANDAS~ or something. I think people are becoming more aware of shark finning and how awful it is, though, so that's good. Really good.
And thank you :3

Ugh.I don't know what it is with freaking sea over-fishing but it needs to stop.So many animals nowadays are getting endangered just for a "delicacy". These are animals we need to live in harmony with to maintain the balance of nature.If we don't maintain that balance,Things usually don't go that well in the long run.
I think all animals are beautiful in their own way,Even if they are predators.I hope that we can stop this overfishing of them <3

I still don't see how people are afraid of EVERY shark they see... I end up swimming next to them all the time.
It's really messed up down here in Florida... The tourist morons always go screaming in terror "IT'S A SHARK, OMFG! KILL IT!" It pisses me off to no end. ;~; Sharks don't usually attack people unless they're a particularly aggressive species. Sharks just tend to bite or nip at things... they have no hands or anything else to really investigate, so I don't blame them.
