This passive shark moves very little, you will have a better chance of seeing it move on a night dive!
It has two large black spots behind his head on each side of his body.
Unlike other sharks, they have to chew their food for 5 to 10 minutes. His teeth have disappeared to leave room for a flat surface to break the prey shell.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
