It's like Shark Week over here today. A reader just sent us this photo, taken Sunday at Brighton Beach, saying that this man plucked this baby shark right out of the shallow water with his bare hands. When we inquired about him throwing it back in so it could live, and grow, and eventually feed off of gold-chained locals, she told us, "I think he took it home to cook it" (shark fin soup?). He reportedly put the little guy in a plastic bag, departed, returned to the beach, and resumed sunbathing. Sigh, why did we even ask.

I would like to throw that fat ass in the oven.
Oh, Himmler!
all grown up dogfish. people say they taste good (this is what a lot of english fish'n'chips is actually made of since we decimated the cod), but not sure about the brighton beach marinade...
Baby shark meat...Yummy
If he threw in some Veal could be a nice surf and turf dinner
All our conservation efforts are futile while jerks like this guy are around. Can't wait to see what happens if the dolphins and seals to return to Staten Island.
He has enough room in that belly of his to eat Jaws.
fat ass bastard
You don't have to put on the red light.
Jesus fucking christ. It's a fucking fish.

I guarantee that he probably took it home and then tossed it in the garbage.
You can't guarantee a probability.
We got ourselves an astute statistician in tha house!
Touche.
I doubt, those russians eat a lot of crazy stuff and they don't seem to be shy about trying anything! There is one place by us, i have to cross the street when we pass, the smell is nauseating in 10th power, BUT, in their defense, everything i've tasted has been delish, just don't ask what it is.
Fat slob.
Oh, he's not so fat and he seems fairly well-groomed. You just don't like him because he took your fish.
Not a shark, a dogfish. And not a baby either. No harm, no foul. Everyone take a deep breath.
Dogfish refers to several species of shark.
and from now on he will brag until eternity: "I caught a shark once with my bare hands!!"
Or maybe a sand shark. I used to catch those at Block Island when I was a kid, using a drop line.
Keep fucking that chicken.
Is that guy right out of Goombah Central Casting?
Poor little fish.
The shark needs to open up this shitbag's belly and retrieve the remains of its loved ones.
i second that.
That shark should feed two. Not much fin on him, but I reckon he can get a good dinner out of him!
Jealous! (drool)
honey, is that a shark in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?
Interested in preserving that catch for later generations to see?
Might I suggest he contact the Urban Taxidermist?

He might want to consider using some good sunscreen product...
please put a shirt on!!
O right. Every poster on Gothamist is a vegan.
Or do you only eat meat that comes in a styrofoam tray?
This kind of shark is sold at our farmer's market, and it's delicious.

Why would anyone eat something they found on Brighton beach? EEEEEEWWWWW!
