Different types of sharks

 There are hundreds of different species of sharks, I will explain some examples:


Angel sharks- it has a flat body like a stingray, the difference between the ray and this shark  is that the pectorial fins are not attached to his head. They tend to bury themselves in sand of mud with only their eyes and the top of their bodies exposed.

Basking sharks- it is the second largest shark (about 30 feet long), it eats plankton and filters it from the water using "gill rakers".

Blue sharks- blue sharks are only about 12 feel long, they have a very sleek , tapered body. They are capable of leaping out of water and are incredibly fast swimmers. Their diet consists of mostly squid and they are known to be quite dangerous as they have a history of attacking people

Great white sharks-  these particular sharks have attacked people more than any other type. the average size is about 12 feet long and 3,000 pounds heavy. The unusual thing about this smart and something that makes it stand out is that it can lift its head above or out of the water.
