That's actually a killer whale, not a shark. Killer whales are mammals and featured at Sea World.

It does look like a shark. They are relying on outside knowledge.
I mean, a dolphin looks much, much more like a shark than a killer whale does

It's even obvious in the cartoons you posted. Come on, find an image from anywhere (that existed prior to this post) showing a dolphin with black-and-white markings. I dare you.

Which dolphin? There are at least two kinds, the marine mammals and the dolphin fish.
Deepak Bala wrote:This comparison is based on their color. Dolphins and sharks do not look alike when it comes to their shape.
Just as, in your chosen cartoons, neither form looks much like a real shark or orca - but the colors make it really obvious which is which.
Tomorrow will surely be a new day!!!
