Pretty scary:eek: , but some are vegetarians feeding on plankton.
To help identify what sort it is I have found this link

Looking at the pawprint to compare the size, it looks like it could be a basking shark......they are 3-4 feet in size.

Its not a Basking Shark.To me it looks like one of the breeds of Blue shark,which can be found in South Wales and Cornish waters.

Basking Sharks have huge great mouths Margaret for when they feed on the plankton.
