OKINAWA / JAPAN — The Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium in Japan was the only place in the world where a great white shark was being held in captivity. The 11.5 foot long killer was accidentally picked up in a net on Tuesday, but it died in captivity, just three days later.

"The cause of death is clear: captivity. The shark never had to die like this," said a spokesperson for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

The aquarium released a message saying, "We had displayed the shark in "the Sea of dangerous sharks" tank from January 5th, 2016 but, the shark's condition took a sudden turn worse and we confirmed its dead January 8th."

Sharks needs to continue swimming in order to maintain their oxygen levels and body temperature. This shark refused to eat after being taken into captivity. It eventually sank to the bottom of the tank, and then floated up to sharkie heaven. Rest in piece, Jaws.
