Great White Sharks
One of the most feared animals in the world is the
shark and the shark most people are afraid of is the great white
shark. It gets its name from its white belly. The top of the great
white is gray which helps it blend in with the rocky bottom of the
ocean. Although some fish are bigger, like the whale shark, the great
white can grow up to 20 feet long Unlike the calm, slow whale shark
that feeds on tiny fish and plants, the great white is speedy and
aggressive. A great white's prey includes sea lions, seals, sea turtles
and rays. They use their razor sharp teeth, not to chew, but to rip
their prey into small pieces. They have hundreds of teeth that can
grow up to three inches long. The great white does not have many
predators in the ocean except for orcas and larger sharks. Humans,
however, are its biggest threat Sharks often get caught in fishing
nets or humans kill them for their fins or teeth
