High and complacent. Read on...

They're a delicacy. You're only supposed to eat a few at a time.

Longer but slower. Much slower. As a matter of fact, sharks in
particular pretty much hit a dead stop prior to the beginning of the Age
of Dinosaurs. Ergo, for the last 200+ million years, all they do is swim
around and take up space in the sea just like their forefishies did in
the good ol' Triassic. Humans, on the other hand, evolved at least 1000
times as much in the most current 5 million years alone! Fish have
little reason to brag, -especially when one considers how ugly they are.
