'''Glut''', also known as the '''shark''',<ref>''Kingdom Hearts Ultimania''</ref><ref>''Kingdom Hearts Official Strategy Guide'' by Dan Birlew</ref> is a great white shark found in [[Atlantica]], only appearing there in ''{{c|Kingdom Hearts|game}}''. He first appeared in Disney's ''{{w|The Little Mermaid (1989 film)|The Little Mermaid}}''.

Glut is normally found swimming around the Sunken Ship area. He is considered a minor enemy at first, as the player can escape fighting him, but he must be defeated later to enter [[Ursula]]'s lair. He attacks randomly, and can do a great deal of damage.  

Glut is one of only eight enemies in ''Kingdom Hearts'' who do not have entries in Jiminy's Journal (the others being [[AntiSora]], [[Bit Sniper]], the [[Cave of Wonders Guardian]], [[Chernabog]], the [[Crank Tower]], [[Shadow Sora]], and {{ns|Game|World of Chaos}}).

Glut mainly appears around the Sunken Ship and attacks [[Sora]] and company while they are in the area. When the friends are searching for Ursula's lair, he attacks in an attempt to eat them. Upon being defeated, he flees. However, he still remains around the Sunken Ship after the sea-witch's defeat.

Glut is modeled after a {{W|great white shark}}, with a rotund body and yellow eyes. The top half of his body is a dark blue-grey, while the underside is a lighter blue-grey color. He has three gill slits on either side of his body and a small nick in his tail fin. The shark only has one dorsal fin, without the second, smaller dorsal fin further down his body like most sharks. While his teeth are the typical triangular shape of a great white, they seem to lack serrations and, most notably, there is only one row of teeth in his mouth, as opposed to the multiple, rotating rows of teeth common to all sharks.
