It's one of the ikea plushies. Apparently it is used by trans people as somewhat of an identifying symbol (has the trans flag colors on it) and people post pictures of themselves with this plush when they come out as trans.

Disclaimer: this is my understanding as a cis het man, so take this with a boatload of salt.

The only question I would for that explination is why a shark plush?

Because it is affordable, available all around the world and has the colors of the trans flag on it (blue back, white bottom and pink mouth).
