Bull Sharks do not migrate. They usually prefer warm oceans and seas around the equator and spanning upto the tropic of cancer on one side and the tropic of capricorn on the other. They dont live in cold waters and so, do not have the need to migrate. However, they have been known to swim up rivers.

  • Yes, because they know that killer whales are super incredibly powerful ocean predatory mammals. Killer whales are able to hunt and kill animals that are 2 times bigger than their actual size. They can kill whale sharks, sperm whales, great white sharks, tiger sharks, goblin sharks, angel sharks, giant squids, lemon sharks and including mako sharks. Nearly all sharks are scared of killer whales and have so much fear every single time they see killer whales.

Kayaking is fun, some people say, but not for people without arms. As bull sharks have fins and not arms, they are unlikely to ever kayak. Therefore, kayaking with bull sharks is not feasible.

Who protected bull sharks?

Asked by Wiki User

Yes. Bull Sharks are apex predators. In their natural habitat, they have very few natural predators. Very few marine animals are large enough to actually hunt or kill a full grown bull shark. However, humans are the biggest enemies for these sharks. They have been hunted and killed indiscrimenately by humans for decades.

That is why there are bans on hunting these sharks.

How many people have been killed by bull sharks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

A Great White Shark kills roughly 150 swimmers/bathers in a year!!!

ALL great white sharks kill attack 5 - 10 people a year (that's why a shark arrack is newsworthy).

It is estimated that the GWS is almost extinct with only 3,500 left.

If the above figure were correct it would mean that each shark would kill 3 people per week, a total (for all GWS) of over half a million human fatalities annually (whilst California reports 20 attacks - not fatalities - per annum.

Why is a castrated bull called a steer?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Often the bull that is being castrated isn't suitable for breeding purposes because of lack of adequate structural conformation including small testicles, bad legs, too much femininity, too shallow in the gut and heart girth, bad topline, etc. Bulls that lack libido are also cut. Other reasons could be that there are too many intact males in a herd that young bulls don't need to be used in that breeding herd and are banded. Bulls that have inferior genetics due to the history of their dam or sire or their overall performance are also cut.

Steers are more docile and less dangerous and unpredictable than bulls are. They also bring a premium to the North American market, and marble better than bulls do. Steers are the main animals found in feedlots that are fattened up for the meat market, since the demand for meat from steers from consumers is so high.

Are great white sharks bigger than basking sharks?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Basking sharks are meat eaters they love to eat little children from ages 1-18 and swim around slowly with their mouths wide open. They are larger than the great white and are of a gray colour.

The great white eats things like seals and have a mouth full of impressive teeth the jaws of which they can telescope outwards. They are a very active swimmer and are paler in colour.

Addendum: All the above is correct except the part about basking sharks being meat eaters. They are plankton eaters.
