Overfishing is the main reason, but also because females only give birth every 2 to 3 years instead of every year. Also, most females give birth to an average of only 4 pups at a time, unlike other species (for example, the hammerhead can give birth to 30 or 40 pups). Black tips are one of the shorter lived sharks, only living for about 12 years. However, they don't reach sexual maturity until they're 4 years of age. That leaves them only 8 years to reproduce, doing so only every 2-3 years.
Blacktip sharks primarily inhabit warm coastal waters in tropical and subtropical regions worldwide, including the western Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the western Pacific Ocean. They prefer shallow waters near shorelines, making them commonly found in areas like coral reefs, lagoons, and estuaries.
A blacktip reef shark has a streamlined body and strong muscles that allow it to swim quickly and efficiently. It also has sharp teeth for catching and eating prey, and its dark coloration helps it blend in with its marine environment for hunting and avoiding predators.
The blacktip shark, also known as the blacktip reef shark, does not swim more that 33 feet below the ocean surface. Their diet consists of cuttlefish, crabs, squid, crabs, octopuses, and other reef fish.
Some sharks lay eggs on the bottom of the ocean, called devil's wheelbarrows or mermaid's purses. Most sharks give birth to live young.
Sharks have been able to survive and avoid being endangered due to their long lifespans, low reproductive rates, and ability to adapt to changing environments. Additionally, conservation efforts such as protected marine areas and regulations on fishing practices have helped to stabilize shark populations in some regions.
As of my experience, The shark that i saw is the BLACKTIP REEF SHARK.
The killer whale can eat all kinds of sharks
