Somewhat old news but...
The Defense Advanced Research Project Agency is working on electronics
to control sharks for military use.
http://technology.newscientist.com/article/mg18925416.300.html

I have an idea for the job ad :)

"Electronics Engineer Wanted
Do you hate sharks but love electronics?
Join DARPA in the exciting field of remote controlled cyborg stealth
zombie sharks!
Turn Jaws into a playful puppy or send it on a kamikaze mission to
blow up a ship.
Surprise stranded sailors when they're rescued by a shark.
("Oh man..I thought I was a gonner when I saw that fin.")
Counter terrorism and make 'shark spies' that patrol the oceans.
Send your resume to DARPA today!
Some fish control experience required."

Who gets these weird ass electronics jobs and how's the pay?

Didn't DARPA invent the Internet?
...that would explain "phishing" scams used in email.

They got into all sorts of PR trouble when they were using dolphins, but
who cares about sharks?

People think "Poor Flipper" and "Die Jaws die!....."

Also.
Sharks are stupid fish. Dolphins are mammals like us..

There are reports sharks are getting overfished. Even the Great White
shark.

By the way..
Dolphins are food in Japan.

No animal is safe...

It's only a matter of time till McDonalds tries out the McFlipper :p

I think McDonalds has the patent on the "BeefMaster" cow...
Evidently, they wanted to pack as much hamburger on it as was bovinely
possible.

That could be an urban myth, however. (But there is such as thing as
a BeefMaster.)
Some corn-fed Iowa engineer will likely straighten it out for us...

I suspect the product name "Mc Mako", just didn't do as well in
initial testing. :(
