Three ways that sharks can have babies: eggs are laid (Whale Shark), eggs hatch inside the mother and then are born, or pups (baby skarks) grow inside the mother (Mako Shark). Sharks can have up to 100 babies at one time. Gestation periods are different too, ranging from 14 months to 24 months depending on the species.
