Some interesting facts about sharks
Sharks have the most powerful jaws on the planet. Sharks never run out of teeth. A shark may use over 20,000 teeth during its life. It always has a row of smaller teeth developing behind its front teeth. The smaller teeth move forward, like a conveyor belt, and the front teeth fall out.
Scientists can tell the age of a shark by counting the rings on its vertebrae (similar to how they can tell how old a tree is by counting its rings!).

Nurse Sharks are thought to be the laziest sharks, they refuse to move in cold months, have a limited diet and don’t need to move to breathe like other sharks.
Shark fin soup is a popular traditional dish in Asia, Hawaii and Australia. Up to 73 million sharks are killed a year for their fins.
