I think Warren and Scurvy's point was more about brevity, conjecture and relevance. But mostly brevity.

In the late 70’s there used to be a large Tiger shark who made his rounds early in the morning through the Bight and in the mid 90’s there was a large Lemon shark who slept in the big cave on Norman.
