Great White Shark

The Great White Shark can be found throughout the World's oceans. After the movie series called "Jaws", the Great White has gained a lot of popularity becoming one of the better-known species of shark.
Although they are considered man-eaters, humans aren't on their menu. They are responsible for just five to ten attacks per year, but scientists believe that the shark is taking a "sample bite" out of curiosity and then swims away. They prefer sea mammals such as sea lion and seal.
They have a strong sense of smell that helps them detect a colony of seals two miles away and if there is a small drop of blood in 100 litres of water they would smell it.
The Great White Shark is listed as "vulnerable" by the IUCN because they are hunted for their jaws, teeth and fins.
