Bull Sharks migrate into the fresh water rivers and channels to give birth. Giving birth in fresh water prevents other sharks from eating their young. Bulls are one of the only sharks that can live in either salt or fresh water, giving them the ability to migrate into the fresh waters leaving the threat from other sharks behind
