Sharks actually don't exist, they're all loose robots!

After Jaws came out, the production crew lots a few of it's prop sharks, this worried them for a while until they realized it would raise profits for their upcoming series of movies to follow, so they started to release more.

The government was going to have all of the sharks removed but found out they were helping get rid of overpopulated fish as well as no good tourists! The government started to then promote the making and releasing of sharks and shark related things to make us believe that they had been around forever.

Next time you get a chance to see a real life "shark jaw" just spritz it with water and it might melt, the earlier models were made of paper mache!
