While some found it amusing, others chimed in on the post saying that this was blatant animal abuse.

TotalFratMove responded to the incident on their website, saying "I can admit that it's in relative poor taste, but it's not so bad that it deserves all of this attention, or even close to it." 

It is unknown where the video was taken but fishing for shark species is legal in Florida. 

The media site aimed at college students encouraged spring breakers to send them their pictures to an Instagram called @tfmspringbreak, which has since been deleted.
