Great white sharks are the most aggressive marine creature, which have no natural predators.
These giant sharks can grow up to six meters long and weigh as much as 1,800 kilos. Humans are
the only beings who dare to get close to them.
Inside the gigantic jaws of a great white are thousands of teeth. A great white does not have to
worry about losing its teeth because when they wear down or break, the shark grows extra teeth to
replace them. Even with 3,000 teeth, it does not chew its food. Instead, it tears its prey into large
pieces and swallows them whole.
Great white sharks are skillful hunters. All fish, even the smallest ones, produce small amount
of electricity. Great whites find their prey by feeling this electricity. It is impossible to hide from a
great white shark.
Great whites are independent creatures. This begins very early in life. Even before birth, the
babies receive no nutrition from their mother. To survive, they eat their brothers and sisters. As
soon as the surviving babies are born, the mother shark swims away and leaves the young sharks to
begin their life alone.
Although it normally lives an independent life, the great white has come across humans too
