Is “Bruce” The Most Popular Sharks America?

This summer marks the movie’s 50th anniversary, and a recent poll looked at the most popular sharks in the U.S.A. And Bruce from “Jaws” did NOT come in first. Here are the Top 5 . . .

#5) Destiny from “Finding Dory”

#4) King Shark from “The Suicide Squad”

#3) Lenny from “Shark Tale”

#2) Bruce from “Jaws”

#1) Bruce from “Finding Nemo”  (2003)

(And yes, Bruce from “Nemo” is named after Bruce from “Jaws”.)

Meanwhile, Google Trends was used to find the most-searched shark in each state. The Great White was #1 in every state but FOUR. Alaska, Utah, and Georgia are into whale sharks, and Hawaii is more interested in the tiger shark. The great white IS the most dangerous shark, by the way. Followed by the tiger shark, the bull shark, the requiem shark, and the blue shark.
