DIET

A shark's diet includes sea lions, dead whales, and a large variety of fish. sea lions pups are most popular on the menu for a shark. Like orcas, sharks have a unique way on eating sea lion pups, orcas tend to sneak up on them on the beach. Sharks attack in the water, but in a similar way. sneak up on them and attack. it's very interesting to watch.

funny shark movies.


There are a lot of silly shark movies out there, but no shark movie can top. SHARKTOPUS! It's a movie about a big half shark half octopus, it's hilarious. oh and did i mention it can go on land. It was the funniest movie, ever! but if you can't handle a bunch of blood and things like that you shouldn't see this movie.

Megalodons are extinct, but we know a little bit about them. Like they were really big and dangerous, and I'mtalking about a shark that lived in dinosaur time, all right! In this picture, 6 men are standing in a jaw of a megalodon. You can imagine how big they were. Some people believe they still exist but that's just crazy talk

I PROTEST!

I protest against shark finning and random shark killing! I can't believe people actually do that! I mean really! They just catch them, cut off their dorsal fins and drop them back in the water to bleed to death or get eaten! If sharks go extinct, I'll be so mad and sad. The ocean will overload with fish! Shark finning is wrong and gross.

some people wonder if sharks have eyelids. they do. A sharks eyelid is only used when attacking something. When ever a shark attacks something,strong thick lids cover the eye to protect it. A shark's eyelid is mostly only activated if it's attacking a seal or whale,or anything that can fight back. If you've seen any close up shark attacks, you've seen the lid cover the eye. In the movie deep blue sea, you can see in a couple times the lid cover the fake sharks eye. It's pretty cool they actually had the lid at all!

Shark's skin isn't like other fish.  They don't have scales.  What sharks have are called dermal denticles.  Dermal denticles are like little teeth but,on their skin and not in their mouth.  In jaws two, when they were all in the water with the shark freaking out.  the shark rubbed against one of the girls stomach, it scratched her up.  the weird thing about that though, dermal denticles point back wards and not forwards.  and the shark wasn't swimming back ward.  sharks can't swim backwards.  I've pet a shark before at ocean world in crescent city, and it was cool! it was a leopard sharks, they are completely harmless.
