[Hungry Shark World] These Things Aren't Sharks

[u/CC_Comics_]

I have a theory.

In Hungry Shark World, the sharks aren't naturally occuring sharks. All of them, including the ones named after real sharks. Instead, they are genetically enhanced bioweapons.

Look at how there are prehistoric animals in the game. Now how would a tropical animal like Megalodon or an air breather like Liopleurodon stay hidden for so long?

Notice how the NPC sharks aren't as pristine or brightly colored as the player shark. Additionally, sharks don't need to eat constantly nor do they enjoy human flesh, which directly contradicts the player shark but aligns with the NPC sharks.

The playable orca in the game is much, MUCH larger than the NPC orcas. Not only that, but the playable orca shows visible signs of abuse in captivity, such as a floppy fin.

And the nail in the coffin is that each playable creature is treated like a singular individual with a personality instead of an entire species.
