In the sea culture of Tawi-Tawi, Philippines Sharks are their enemies at sea so the creatures are treated with no mercy. The name they appellate to the shark is Saitan and is derived from Satan, the devil.
The hunt for sharks in the Philippines islands is fortunately limited as Sharks are eaten as a delicay only among the local Bajao and Samal populace.
