Yeah, cookie cutter sharks were attracted to sonar arrays used on early US nuclear subs since the material mimicked the blubber of dolphins and whales they usually eat, and they kept taking large chunks off of the soft rubber sonar cone which ruined its effectiveness.
It caused millions of dollars of damages, and the US navy thought the Soviets were using frogmen or some unknown weapon to mess with them. They only figured it out when they caught a cookie cutter in the act and changed the designed.

Lemon sharks are certainly in my type 5 but they can get possessive and I don’t like being tied down
