It's a shark. They knew what they were getting into. If they didn't want danger, they'd have bought a duck or something.

That reminds me that I need to find an r/nottheonion alternative on here.

"Twelve injuries have already been reported with Zuru’s full-sized Robo Alive Junior Baby Shark Sing & Swim Bath Toys — after children sat or fell on the now-recalled products. Nine of these cases required stitches or medical attention, according to a Thursday release from the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission. "

Ouch.

With this logic shouldn't all of the lego brick be recalled and destroyed in the mount Doom?!?!?!

That “TRY ME” reads like a warning, I guess those kids couldn’t read

That was the first thing I saw as well, lol. Actually reads more like a warning than an innocent: "Try me out :)"

Sharks are evolving. They used to only bite people, they've moved up to stabbing.

Someone just made this up so that they could get it away from their kid, didn't they?

I jest, but that would be funny.
