The shark emoji shows a shark, usually in side profile with its fin visible. It represents sharks, the ocean, danger, predators, and anything associated with Jaws.
In messages, it can describe a ruthless or highly competitive person, especially in business, gambling, or sports. It also appears in Shark Week posts and references to the children's song Baby Shark, sometimes with mild parental fatigue.
