Running head: Sharks Sharks T Tolerico Marine Biology Doctor Cameron Guenther Sharks What do you think of when you hear the word “Shark”? Do you think of the lion of the ocean or perhaps God’s perfect predator/scavenger? Perhaps you think of the movie “JAWS”? Most people will think of the movie “JAWS” and think killer, attacker, and predator. However, are sharks really preying on humans? I view sharks as God’s perfect predator and scavenger. Sharks, like lions, weed out the sick and

The Shark and Its Prey: From a Christian’s Viewpoint Humanity has always been curious about the world around them, and many have searched the world, looking for the origin of life. They have travelled all over the world and even to the moon. Yet, the ocean remains largely unexplored or studied. Scientists are still discovering new species in the depths of the ocean. With all these species of fish and other animals in the ocean comes the question, “where did they all come from?” Some believe that

Sharks are vicious creatures and eat humans. Don’t go into the water if you see a shark nearby or they will come after you. These are a few of the many things you will hear from the television or even people you may know. Humans are not a part of the shark diet so it is highly unlikely that a shark would randomly go after a human. The media likes to make their shark stories more exciting by adding words like “aggressive” or “threatened.” There was a total of 4 deaths caused by sharks in 2014 which

Why should we save the sharks? Sharks have been around for many years, they were on earth before humans were. There are many reasons why we should save the sharks like, sharks play a vital role in keeping the ecosystem balanced. Also, life evolved from the sea so we should honor it. Lastly, sharks give us the food water and air that we need to survive.

As humans we hear “shark” and we tend to think of movies like JAWS or feel emotions like fear yet these do not represent them accurately. These fish do the job of regulating the sea an important factor that’s being affected by humans on a daily basis. Unfortunately, we humans as a species are wastefully killing these sharks this

Sympathy for JAWS Sharks are known as one of the deadliest creatures in the aquatic ecosystem, but what would happen in the world’s ocean without those sharks? The depopulation of sharks is increasing dramatically due to human impacts. If this continues, it will negatively impact all aspects of ocean life and environment (Ferretti et al, 2010). The depopulation of a creature so high on the aquatic food chain can lead to the overpopulation of other organisms, which causes a domino effect on all creatures

What do Sharks eat? Introduction Sharks consume prey to live; similar to all living organisms, food is needed for survival. Sharks are found in waters all over the world and they come in a variety shapes and sizes. Some sharks are as small as a human hand and some sharks can be the size of a small to medium boat. The size, environment, and characteristics of the shark, will dictate what food the shark prefers. Generally, people think sharks will eat anything that it comes into contact with, but

the ‘shark attack’ issue has been a controversial topic around Australia, where it has the most attack than the other parts of the world. In this paper, I present my arguments on why sharks should not be killed nor responsible for the attacks. First and foremost, some may say that human life is more important. However, sharks place an important role in the ecosystem since it is one of the top predators in the world. There is some evidence to suggest that the number of sharks declines

life in the ocean fascinated by sharks. Stewart's passion for sharks lead him to eventually become a marine biologist so he could spend his days scuba diving out in the ocean. His main goal shooting this movie is to inform viewers about how sharks are being killed so brutally and to persuade watchers to help do something to keep the shark population in tact. Stewart and his anti poaching crew try to evacuate the illegal fishermen out of the waters, help save the sharks, and raise awareness about the
