I really like sharks and just aquatic organisms in general. Sharks are really cute because they have really simple feautres.
Whale Sharks are my favourite type of sharks. When they eat they open their mouth and suck in their food. They look very funny and cute when they eat. Despite being large theyre also peaceful.
Great White Sharks are also very cute. However, they can be dangerous unlike Whale Sharks. Movies portray the shark aggressively and although it is true that they are predators most of the time they just bite humans for a taste. Sharks don't like how humans taste so they swim away after that.
Australia is the continent/country with a lot of sharks. Australia also has more diversity in sharks than other places with a lot of sharks. There were about more than 900 shark attacks since the late 18th century. Bondi Beach is one of the most shark infested beaches in the world and it's a common beach to travel to.
Sharks have a lifespan of about 20-30 years. They play an important part in the environment as being a top predator. Sharks are considered fishes not mammals because they breathe through gills. Sharks have been shown to have existed more than 420 million years ago. In fact, it's shown that sharks are older than dinosaurs.
