They leave a rising trail of small, square bubbles that rapidly shrink. These can ascend above the surface of the water.

While it may appear at times that a shark (particularly a large one) is out of the water or inside a solid [[Blocks|block]], this is only because it's location is determined by the position of its head and jaws. The rest of the shark can overlap adjacent spaces with no effect.

==Behavior==
==Behavior==
The larger the shark is, the more common it is to attack blockheads. Larger sharks are capable of inflicting more damage than young ones. Sharks will swim towards a blockhead in a [[boat]] or out of the water on a [[beach]] or other adjacent block and try to attack, but they cannot reach them. Young sharks and a shark that failed in an attack attempt tend to swim quickly away from blockheads. Sharks change direction whenever it receives damage from an attack. Sharks do not behave any differently when encountering [[Fish (creature)|fish]].

A shark that comes within about half a dozen blocks of a blockhead will become more active, swimming faster and more likely to turn around.

==Uses==
Currently there are three uses for sharks. One is for collecting shark jaws from killing sharks, which can be placed on back walls. Another one is for [[food]] and rare drops of [[Clothes|clothing]] (which tends to spawn used and often [[Dye Bench|dyed]]). Raw fish is in greater quantities than from fish when sharks are killed. The final use is for farming.

Young sharks are able to be caught in a bucket, creating a [[Shark Bucket|shark bucket]] which can then be moved and emptied into a different place. Sharks can only be placed in water. It's possible to [[Construction|build]] an aquarium of sharks, or let them grow up and then kill them for raw fish, shark jaws and clothing items.
