Is there a specific event I am missing? Or is this just intended to be fun in general?
Sharks are attracted to deep sea (internet) cables and apparently like chewing on them, which may cause massive internet outages
Why don’t they use chewing gum? Are they stupid?
Help them understand what it’s like to chew 5gum!
Why sharks chewing them then ? Are deep sea cables has special flavor coated ? Or deep sea cables has weird electromagnetic wave that attract shark ?
Some sharks have electroreception that allow them to sense electrical currents for hunting prey.
Both of those have been causes.
Modern cables don’t attract them, but sharks were a constant problem for many decades.
But what about the photos part?
Its just a joke, shark is trying to stop the, presumably, bad photos of them self from being shared.
Yes
And so it was that the photos were sharked instead.
