Looks wonderful! I've not had shark, would imagine it's fairly firm and dense.
It's delicious. The tenderness of it, depends on how you cook it. I had to be careful taking it out of the pan because it wants to break apart so easily. It has it's own taste. Some love it, some don't. Obviously, I do. 
You will have to try it one day!

Sharks "urinate" through their flesh and out through their skin. I would suggest that if you plan on eating it, soak it and rinse it several times first. I believe milk is recommended.

It's not illegal, but it's not recommended for most species of shark. They're overfished and don't reproduce quickly. I use Seafood Watch to determine which fish I eat.

Thank you for the reply
Don't know much about eating sharks, usually just avoid getting eaten by one
