The apex predator is mostly depicted in grey color with a white abdomen, often in a curved position. Flaunting its frightening teeth, and pointy nose, tail and fin, the emoji is synonymous with the danger, a shark pose to swimmers and ocean explorers. Besides alerting someone of a shark attack, one can also send the 🦈 to tell someone has a glorious smile.
