To be classified as a shark you need to have rough skin like scales.They are only rough when you rub them from tail to head.Sharks have excellent smelling and eye sight.A shark can see it's prey from 100-200 feet away in clear water.Sharks they reproduce sexually.They lay eggs and if they can't find food for the cubs they eat them.
The next thing is that,well you know those movies about sharks like Jaws.Those things are fake and betray sharks.Most sharks are not dangerous.When sharks bite someone that means they are confusing you with a fish or seal.When they first bite you they will stop and go away because they know they made a mistake.There are only 30 out of 375 sharks that are dangerous.I know some sharks that are dangerous like the thrasher,bull and great white sharks.
The next thing I am going to blog about is the different types of sharks.I am going to put several sharks on this blog.If you leave a comment,tell me your favorite type of shark.
The next one is a prehistoric shark.This is not a real picture,it is a painting a person made by looking at it's fossils.It is called the Megaladon.
The first shark I am going to blog about is the Great White.It can weigh up to 2,500 pounds.They are very dangerous.Their speed can reach up to 25 miles per hour.If you were in the water with one you would not be able to escape.This is the shark that gave other sharks a bad name.This shark lives in temperate seas.That means in weather like what it is in Australia.The great white eats Fish,sharks,sea lions and seals.It can also live up to 30 years.
The next one is the Megaladon.The Megaladon's other name is the Giant tooth.The Megaladon's teeth can reach up to 7 inches.That is amazing that it's teeth are bigger than half a foot.The great white shark's teeth are 2.5 inches.The Megaladon is one of the very few dangerous sharks.
Here is a picture showing how big a Megaladon is compared to a great white.
Well thats my blog and I hope you leave a comment on what is your favorite shark.
