The nurse shark is actually a very timid species. This animatronic puppet is approximately 4' (1.2192 m) long. Gills breathe, head turns left and right, mouth can open, tail snaps around. Very realistic replica. Silicone skin over fiberglass shells. Servos installed inside.

Built with a mouth (mounting the prop in a hanging position as if just caught) or back mount like you see most fish mounted. The paint job has a glossiness to the finish that gives the illusion of it being wet. It's poseable, so it's not just frozen in one position all of the time.
