How does a shark bite?

Right after a shark has picked up the scent of its prey, it closes in on it usually from behind. It opens it mouth wide and right before it bites, a transparent membrane closes over the eye to protect it. This doesn't prevent the shark from seeing. Then, the shark closes hard on the prey's hide. They may shake it from side to side in its mouth to make sure it's dead.
