Sharks are the strong and powerful sea animals. A shark doesn’t have a
single bone in its body.
Sharks never sleep because they have to swim constantly in
order to breathe or they will die.
If a shark loses a tooth, it just grows back quickly. They can grow and lose
over 20,000 teeth in their life.
Sharks eat fish and other sea animals.
But some of the big sharks are vegetarian; they like to eat sea plants.
Sharks are picky eaters. They often take one bite of something and
leave it if they don’t like it.
Sharks can have from 1 to 100 babies at a time.
Baby sharks are called ‘pups’.
Sharks can detect electrical impulses. They can even detect other
animals’ heartbeats.
Sharks are solitary animals that hunt and live alone.
They are very active at night.
