NANTUCKET, Mass. — A cleaning crew has found an unexpected mess after arriving at Sea Dog Brew Pub on Nantucket: a 5-foot-long shark blocking the door.

Pub manager Jimmy Agnew says he doesn't know why anyone would have dumped the sea creature there.

Nantucket's public works department hauled the dead shark away after its discovery around 7 a.m. Thursday.

But Agnew said the pub fielded calls and questions all day long after word got out about the land shark. .............(more)

fish heads were used for centuries to indicate a displeasure with related businesses or business partners . .

especially if they's wronged "family" . .

and a warning, or a notice - -

From an old movie, not totally based on fiction:

"When, in the midst of a mafia war, Sonny Corleone gets a dead fish wrapped in a bulletproof vest, he asks “What the hell is this?”

One of his capos explains that it betokens the demise of the Corleone’s main enforcer: “Luca Brazzi sleeps with the fishes.”

something to ponder . . .

10. That is the rare Tennessee Walking Shark.

You can tell by the oversized pectoral fins and the wide spread tail fin.
The Tennessee Walking Shark is able to survive out of the water for several hours and can cover surprisingly great distances by rapidly 'humping along', much like seals and sea lions.
