Great White Shark

Introduction

Have you ever seen or heard of a great white shark? If you're looking for some information you might wanna read this

Diet

A shark's diet is meat so they are carnivorous, sharks will eat small fish and sometimes they will also eat seals such as sea lions when they get a bit close to the surface they will also sometimes try leaping out and eating seagulls for a snack because they are desperate for food.

Habitat

Sharks live mainly anywhere in the ocean, but the arctic because it's too cold for them in arctic areas but they also are losing homes due to pollution, climate change, global warming, and natural disasters.

Why endangered

Great white sharks are quite an endangered species of shark because people hunt them for their top fins then sometimes they will throw the rest of the shark back into the ocean still alive. Sometimes people even over hunt and kill more. they take their teeth and make them into jewelry like necklaces and bracelets 

Conclusion

People have banned shark hunting which means it is illegal. Each year thousands of sharks are hunted for their fins, teeth, and meat there are also only 3,500 great white sharks left on the planet. The sharks also sometimes get thrown back into the ocean to bleed out and die, all the dead sharks could become really bad for the ecosystem. it could destroy lots of fish homes and coral reefs, the weight of their body's could crush thin coral and pollute the reefs and could affect the entire ocean and food chain.
