An Orlando artist who used a 3D printer to recreate and sell figurines of the bumbling shark that danced behind Katy Perry during the Super Bowl halftime show has incurred the wrath of the pop star's lawyers at Greenberg Traurig. In a letter to the alleged copyright infringer, they write that Perry has exclusive rights to the shark images and costumes seen in her halftime show.

By now most people have probably forgotten about the cartoonish blue shark that danced a bit off beat behind Katy Perry at the Super Bowl halftime show last Sunday, but not the pop star’s lawyers at Greenberg Traurig.
The shark, known as “Left Shark” presumably because it danced stage left of Perry, rose quickly to Internet fame, prompting Orlando-based artist Fernando Sosa to use a 3-D printer to create and sell 3-inch-tall figurines of the fish.
