This is a tribute to Peter Benchley, not the movie Jaws (1975)
The author of 'Jaws' dedicated the rest of his life to reversing the unexpected negative impact his book had on the image of sharks.
Not only were sharks supposedly killed to create props for the movie, but 'Jaws' ended up awakening a bloody sea of ignorance in people at the time, who, haunted by an irrational fear and lack of understanding about marine predators, felt motivated to take to their boats and kill thousands of great white sharks in the most feared ways.
Such as the promotion of great white shark hunting championships that targeted the biggest ones, which were mostly pregnant females who, after being displayed as a trophy, had their jaws ripped off and their bodies discarded in the garbage.
Fear spread widely to all shark species, creating a lack of sensitivity that made it convenient to exterminate entire shark populations around the world that for a long time remained invisible to people's perception.
And this has continued to resonate for a long time with the entertainment media perpetuating the portrayal of sharks as monsters, newspapers favoring sensationalism about shark incidents, governments promoting shark culls, the advance of the unregulated predatory fishing industry, scientists not being supported in their studies of marine predators, the destruction of their natural habitats and the pollution of the oceans.
For thousands of years, sharks have taken care of the health of our oceans, older than the dinosaurs or the first trees, they have gone through great mass extinctions, they have been worshipped and respected as gods and guardians by oceanic peoples and now we demonize them in our media and exterminate them by the millions every year, who is the real monster?
We are shark-eaters.
I hope you can also hear what Peter Benchley himself had to say about all this:
I finally finished this artwork! Hope you like it. At some point I will adapt it for my little Redbubble store.🛍️
I reduced the quality to try to prevent them from stealing. I hope it's enough! 🙁
---
I posted it in my little RedBubble store for anyone who wants it! There are clothes, prints and other curious things.🛍️

Animal of the Day!
Red-Lipped Batfish (Ogcocephalus darwini)
(Photo from The Verge)
Conservation Status- Least Concern
Habitat- Galapagos reefs; Coast of Peru
Size (Weight/Length)- 40 cm
Diet- Mollusks; Small fish; Crabs
Cool Facts- While you might look at this and think it’s a picture of your 75 year old neighbor Mrs. Smith, you would be wrong. The red-lipped batfish is a fish with legs. Well, not really legs but modified fins that allow them to walk across the floor of the ocean. Due to this amazing adaptation, batfish are poor swimmers and make easy targets for predatory fish. They tend to stick to shallow coral reefs that have plenty of food.
Rating- 11/10 (A fish. That can walk. And it has lips.)

Have you ever seen marine life as wicked as this in the aquarium?
Nah I didn't think so!
I'll be selling these as stickers locally in the next week, more information on that later!
