Great White Sharks In 2015 only 59 shark attacks have occurred around the world compared to the millions of sharks killed by humans every year.

Sharks are not the only beautiful and unique creatures in the ocean, they also play a vital role in our ecosystem; however, due to human interference they might
The Great White Shark Beginning with the simplest one-celled organism, an extraordinary animal rose in the murky waters entitled to a non-comparable killing-eating machine. This organism has become nature’s most genuine and most successful creature that it has remained unchanged for over 250 million years. Nature finally invented the perfect king of the sea.

Shark nets have been implemented in locations across the world in response to shark sightings and attacks. Nets are submerged beneath the surface of the water, roughly 200 metres from the shoreline.

Whilst a number of initiatives have been discussed and or trialed by our government we need to find an effective

the evidence of a shark attack. This was originally rated as a PG but when re-released a 12. A great opening scene showing Chrissy ‘the stereotypical blonde’ being devoured by the unknown killer, puzzles most reviewers in the question is it a horror or a thriller? The famous Dah Dum holds suspense until the attack and every time we hear it we think ‘get out of the water!’ After the shark feeds on little Alex Kintner, his mother sets a reward for the destruction of the shark and the costal resort

Shark attacks are mistakes and the idea of a shark off every beach waiting for people to come in the water is completely untrue.

Prehistoric Sharks One of the previous papers in English class required the class to pick a paper to explore, this question will be concentrated on further in the synthesis essay. What evidence do scientist have to prove that prehistoric sharks existed?
