create implication furred_shark (535) -> fur (1720179)
create implication furred_shark (535) -> shark (55374)
create implication furred_shark_taur (0) -> furred_shark (535)
create implication furred_shark_taur (0) -> shark_taur (14)
create alias fluffshark (3) -> furred_shark (535)

Reason: Furred sharks are sharks that are covered in fur. Furred shark taurs are furred shark taurs.
Manokit is a combination of Japanese word for fox and Hawaiian word for shark (Mano+kitsune ).

EDIT: The bulk update request #4163 (forum #357734) has been approved by @spe.

IMO manokit should imply furred_shark rather than aliasing, as they have enough unique features that they are easily distinguishable from other furry sharks (closed eyes, digitigrade legs and raptor-like stance, ear and head shape, etc). We have tags for other fandom-created species like sergal, protogen, and dutch_angel_dragon so there is precedent for that.

I would say, on this website, those features are quite generic. And a lot of posts tagged with manokit don't have them anyway. But over at dutch angle dragon topic #19843 the decision was reached to keep the tag, so I guess I'll follow the precedent.
