Shark food
Sharks are efficient predators. They have a highly developed sense of smell, hearing and sight. They can scent their prey in the water from a great distance. Their sensitive eyes can see clearly even in the dim light of the ocean depths.
Sharks are carnivorous and eat fish, including other sharks. Large species may eat seals, turtles and penguins. Some sharks, like the whale shark and the basking shark feed on plankton. Blue sharks swim in leisurely circles when they are hungry and become increasingly excited when they sense food.
Baby sharks
Most fish lay eggs in the water which are then fertilised by the male. But shark eggs are fertilized inside the females body. In most species, the eggs hatch inside the female and the babies (called pups) are born alive. Some kinds of sharks, like the cat shark do lay eggs, ejecting them in flattened cases known as Mermaid's Purses
Some sharks that give birth to live babies have as few as 2-3 pups at one time. Others have around 12 and some as many as 70-80. A new born shark is able to swim as soon as it is born and is immediately left to fend for itself by the mother.
Because sharks cannot breed fast like other fish, it means that their numbers can be easily be reduced by too much fishing. This is why scientists believe that shark fishing should be regulated.
The growing trade in shark fins - often used to make an expensive Asian soup - has become a serious threat to many shark species.
