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.
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.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
