My boys have been begging to post a Shark request. My little boys love sharks. Shark meat could feed a lot of people and the teeth could be used for tools. A megladon would be really cool. How about hooking a Shark and then going for a ride with the fishing pole! And their jaws can be hung on the wall as a killer trophy! Someone please know that sharks are cool and we want them. Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.
Since you are new here (and because I'm in an unusually good mood ) I will go easy on this suggestion.
First, it is recommended to give as much detail as possible when going into such depth as you did. Some people here (myself included) can be quite cynical and dismissive of "half-baked" ideas.
Your suggestion is not bad, as far as details go, but it requires a bit more thought in some areas. For starters, how large will the sharks be, and how much health should they have? How much damage would they deal to the player?
With the exception that they would be a water-based hostile mob, would there be anything else special about them? You mentioned they can drop meat. How much stamina would the meat restore when eaten raw? Cooked? What about special drops? You mentioned shark teeth. What would those be used for?
I can tell you right now that the prospect of using them for tools or weapons would be hotly debated. Many people (myself included) believe that the tools are fine as they are. Incorporating new materials or *gasp* adding new tiers would only clutter up what is essentially a perfect system.
Riding a shark sounds... interesting, but it's not something I think should be added to the game. There is a certain "feel" for the vanilla Minecraft experience and riding a shark doesn't jive with that feel. Using their jaws as a decoration IS something that would be cool. More so if a shark was a high-level opponent where displaying the jaws as a trophy would be a symbol of accomplishment.
In conclusion, I'm not against this suggestion, but I think a dialog needs to be opened to hash-out some of the finer details. Other than maintaining the Minecraft experience I mentioned earlier, there are certain things the game simply might not be capable of.
Sharks would be nice. We do need an aggressive water mob that'll make water a bit dangerous to swim through. Right now, water is basically the safe place during night and such. Especially with a boat.

Also if you go into a boat, sharks will occasionally try to chase you while your in your boat, and if the dorsal fin hits the boat, the boat will shake, but if it does it enough, the boat will break, BUT, the boat will go slightly faster then the shark so you at least have a chance to get out of there

No taming them. It's not possible to tame sharks. It's not possible to tame a lot of things.

Wow! Does this mean that boats aren't going to break when they hit just about anything else? I can't wait for this Shark Update...
they MAY add it but if they do, the pc will most likely get it first THEN us, IF they add it
