I personally would not keep any shark unless it died before I could release it. Sharks just reproduce too slowly and are too vulnerable to overfishing. Also because of the mercury content.

And if I did happen to kill a baby shark for some reason I wouldn't pose for pictures.

I would feel very bad about keeping a shark, but I feel bad about keeping any fish(except legal halibut, just too tasty for their own good!). Why? Because I know that there are people out there that keep EVERYTHING. I have seen the way people look at you when you throw back anything that is legal to keep.
