Believe it or not, sharks are an advanced evolutionary species. Why wouldn't they be - they've been around for 25 million years. Many are like humans. For example, Hammerheads have characteristics that aside from mammals, few other animals exhibit. They include internal fertilization, live birth, large brains and a high degree of learning ability.

Sharks do not normally bite humans unless they are hungry. Sharks will bite in self defense and when they are provoked (for example - pulling their tale) to attack. Unless they are hungry Hammerheads alone in the oceans will avoid humans whenever they can. If they are hungry, forget it. You are the turkey at Thanksgiving dinner.

What is a shark? A shark is a fish with a skeleton made almost entirely of soft, flexible cartilage where as you and I are made of hard bones. Since a shark is not made of bone at all, minerals deposit into their teeth and backbones making them as strong and as hard as bone.

No matter what you hear or read, don't think for one moment that sharks are loving puppy dogs. They are predators, the most efficient killing machine in water (There are fresh water sharks). They have survived all these years by staying on the top of the food chain. No other fish or mammal in the seas eats a shark except a bigger shark. You will read and hear that sharks are afraid of humans. Don't you believe it. When sharks are hungry, they eat everything that comes their way. And watch where you swim. With the shortage of fish in the ocean, sharks are coming closer and closer to the beaches in search of food and that means you and me.

Now there are sharks like the whale shark that grow to tremendous size and feed only on plankton. Many whales do this too, but I still would not go swimming with them.
