Bull Shark

All 6. pectoral, pelvic, caudal, anal, 1st dorsal fin, and 2nd dorsal fin.

It's ability to live in fresh and salt water.

No - once they begin swimming, the baby must avoid other sharks to avoid being eaten, even its brothers and sisters may eat it.

Bullsharks have been found in the gulf of Maine. It is rare because they prefer warm waters, but I did see black and white photos of bullsharks caught in York, ME at the turn of the century. They are migratory and are known to come this far in summer. One has been caught in the Connecticut river.

Yes one but it has been years since it was caught. It was taken to fish and game then put in the zoo. Not sure if it died or what happened

Yup, nothing goes to waste!

The bull shark, which swims in fresh and salt water, is a very aggressive shark and is suspected of attacking 3 people in a New Jersey creek in 1916 that inspired the book/movie Jaws. A great white is thought to have attacked two people in the ocean off the coast of New Jersey around the same time. Bull sharks are considered more dangerous to people, and will be around more humans in fresh and salt water, than the great white which is limited to salt water. Another dangerous salt water shark is the tiger shark.

A Great White it is clearly the superior shark.

No. Sharks are always swimming. If they stop, they will suffocate. Water passes by their gills, and stray oxygen molecules pass through as their means of "breathing." Because of this, they must remain in motion. For sleep, sharks (and dolphins, for that matter) shut down half of their brain, and use the other half to reamain swimming and watch for threats. The halves take turns resting.

im pretty sure it is because of a special gland they have that saves the salt from whem there in the ocean and excretes it when they are in freshwater

A full grown bull shark can be around 10 to 11 meters in length. They can weigh over 320 kilograms or 700 pounds in weight. There have been cases of giant bull sharks that are as long as 13 meters in length. Such animals may weight well over 700 pounds.

theremay be some

Sharks flee from the smell of their own dead species because they don't want to die like their fellow shark.

No. Although Bull Sharks can survive in fresh water, the Yellowstone River is too far away from salt water for the Bull Shark to get to the Yellowstone River.

A Bull Shark is more dangerous than a Great White simply because it covers a wider region of water,and is not restricted to the deep oceans alone.It is the only shark in the world which can survive in salt water and can also swim very close to the shoreline.Thus,it can be found in rivers as well as the oceans and having a greater region of water to cover,poses a serious threat to humans.

The Gharial Is Mainly A Piscivore And Sharks Are Fish. So, The Gharial Would Snap The Bull Shark In Half.

Rare. They have been reported but usually in extreme El Nino years.

what do u think like sharks live there

Bull sharks, Tiger sharks and even the deadly white shark inhabit lake mead. I have seen a 22 foot white shark right off the banks at lake mead. They eat the cows and pigs that fall into the water there. Be very careful while vacationing at lake mead. It could be your last.

No, this was an April Fool's Joke that one of the Local Radio Stations broadcasted... one of my friends fell for it and calls me along with posting it on Facebook!

No. (Read the bottom as well)

Sharks have a water filled canal system beneath their skin called the lateral line. Pressure sensitive cells can detect differences in pressure between one point and another. This system allows the shark to sense water movement and acceleration it uses this information to avoid predators and to locate.

Sharks can find nearby objects by detecting changes in the water movements. They can also feel hot, cold and pain. Many sharks living on the seabed have barbels, which are used to probe the sand for food.

Many fishes swim by contracting and relaxing a succession of muscle blocks, called myomeres, alternately on each side of the body, starting at the head and progressing down toward the tail. The alternate shortening and relaxing of successive muscle blocks, which bends part of the body first toward one side and then toward the other, results in a series of waves traveling down the fish's body. The rear part of each wave thrusts against the water and propels the fish forward. This type of movement is quite clearly seen in the freshwater eel. Because movement of the head back and forth exerts drag, which consumes additional energy and slows travel, a great many fishes have modified this snakelike motion by keeping the waves very small along most of the length of the body, in some cases showing no obvious movement at all, and then increasing them sharply in the tail region. It is the end of the traveling waves that moves the tail forcefully back and forth, providing the main propulsion for forward motion. A simpler form of tail propulsion is seen in such inflexible-bodied fishes as the trunkfish, which simply alternates contractions of all the muscle blocks on one side of the body with those on the other side, causing the tail to move from side to side like a sculling paddle.

Because fish move this way, they feel any and all movements in the water. The Shark will feel all the animals moving away, or the unmeasurable amount of movement because of the Tsunami that is about to hit, they will all run away too.

Nothing is perfect in this universe. There are always loopholes and mistakes that PEOPLE fine and do. So why not fish? Of course animals are not all perfect, just like us, so yes. Sometimes some sharks (and fish) will stay as the storm hits and they will wash ashore. Usually, as the water falls back into the sea, the wildlife is dragged back as well.

live young

Bull Sharks are apex predators. They are known to eat any living creature that lives in its surroundings. Its diet would include fish, turtles, dolphins, crustaceans, other smaller bull sharks etc. They are also known to attack humans. They usually chase and attack their prey.

Yes! I have caught several this summer!
