Do sharks sleep, and if so, how do they do it?

Yes, sharks do sleep, but in a different way than humans. Sharks do not have eyelids, so they cannot close their eyes while sleeping. Instead, some sharks have to keep swimming to keep water flowing over their gills for oxygen. This is called "active rest." Other sharks can rest on the ocean floor or in a cave while still moving water over their gills to breathe.

Do sharks sleep?

Yes, sharks do sleep but in a different way than most animals. They enter a state of restful inactivity where their brain activity and alertness levels are reduced, allowing them to rest and conserve energy. Some species of sharks have to keep swimming even while sleeping in order to pass water over their gills for oxygen.
