Shark Sands

Shark Sands is a competitor of John Hunt.

According to John, Sands' background includes sharking in the South Seas (where he acquired the nickname "Shark,"), pearl-diving and gold mining businesses in Australia, and a brush with the law in the Philippines.

Despite his complete lack knowledge of animals and reputation for dishonesty, Sands buys an animal collecting business from Griffis. He then attempts to put the Hunts out of business by burning the Hunt animal farm and sending a man named Croc to sabatoge the their Amazon expedition.
