Can a Shark Cry?
"Since fishes lack the parts of the brain that set us apart from the fishes — the cerebral cortex — I doubt very much that fishes engage in anything like crying," Webster told LiveScience. "And certainly they produce no tears, since their eyes are constantly bathed in a watery medium."

Do sharks have emotions?

White sharks feel love and emotions as much as we do.

Can sharks feel sad?

Not likely. In sharks and other fish, the parts of the brain related to feelings aren't developed enough to produce a smile. Some animals do apparently show feelings such as happiness, anger and fear. Dogs, cats, dolphins, and monkeys can be especially expressive.
