Tiger Shark


 

The tiger shark is one of the most feared sharks in the world because it is known to be a man-eater. It has a very large mouth, with powerful jaws. Its teeth are flat, triangular, notched and serrated and can slice right through many things. It really doesn't care what it eats, and all kinds of things have been found in its stomach, including metal objects like car license plates.


The tiger shark hunts alone and gets its name from the dark stripes across its back, which fade as the shark grows older. It is a deadly predator which will eat anything it can catch and get down its throat. It has an extraordinary sense of smell, and almost two-thirds of its brain is dedicated to processing information about scents.
