Great White Shark

Description

This beautiful and powerful shark can be found in coastal waters of all the major oceans, mostly in temperate seas. It is warm-blooded, able to keep its body warmer than the water around it, and in most places seals and sea lions are its main prey. Guadalupe Island, in Mexico, is one of the places in the north-eastern Pacific where adult white sharks gather. The IUCN lists the species as Vulnerable.
