Shark Research Paper You are more likely to die from a bee sting or a lighting strike, then a shark attack. People say sharks are monsters and beasts, but they are just the opposite. Ocearch researchers are tagging sharks to help learn about them and to help all of us see that they are not monsters. Ocearch is helping us understand the protection and benefits sharks give us, hopefully we can protect them and make sure they don’t all die out. Sharks such as Crystal, are amazing creatures, and…

and gentlemen, chairman and adjudicator. The topic for our debate tonight is that we should adopt a productive shark culling policy and we, as the affirmative team believe that we benefit from such a policy. We define this topic as the Australian government should adopt a productive and beneficial shark culling program, which is the capture, monitor and occasionally the killing of sharks within vicinity of the beaches that place humans in risk and as the affirmative team we fully support the…

the world. A prime example of this is shark finning. Many of the world’s shark populations are being decimated by the fishing industry, but what people do not take into consideration is the role sharks play in their environment. Not to mention that the way the sharks are being treated during the process is extremely barbaric. Therefore, shark finning should be illegal because it is cruel and inhumane, it has negative effects on the ecosystem, and the sharks that are targeted the most by the…

There is without a doubt that shark threats reduce the public safety on Australia’s popular beaches. How to maintain the safety and protect the environment is a current issue in Australia. Some say shark barrier nets and drumlines are most effective way to avoid shark threats. Buswell (2015) states that by extension, catching sharks that proximity of beaches is making those beaches safer. However, there are also negative impacts on sharks and other marine life by using shark barrier nets or…

population of sharks has been in a steady decrease since the 1950s and now one third of the shark populations is extinct. The decreasement of sharks has been linked to the increase of deep sea fishing in countries all around the world. Another reason for the downfall of the shark population is how long it takes for sharks to breed in the wild. If the world does not stop killing off sharks, the ocean and world will be an entirely different place. People are the main reason that sharks are…

on sharks? Would you be for? Or against this action? From my perspective, a culling would do nothing but lower the numbers of sharks, but not the numbers of attacks. Good morning/afternoon Mrs. Arnold and fellow classmates. Today I would like to talk to you about the situation we have with the amount of shark attacks and fatalities. There are my main reasons for being against a culling of the shark population. Firstly, statistics show that there is no increase in fatalities, secondly sharks…

Understanding the Brain Sometimes you have to tell yourself, “I am a shark” and attack the day - Coach Campaign Understanding the brain is something that many people might find quite complex, especially if you are comparing it to a sea animal. However, they are not as complex as we think, for example, sharks and humans share the same characteristics and structures of the brain. Both species have a cerebrum located superiorly to the body along…

Wow, I didn’t know how unique sharks are. Sharks have been around for millions of years. These predators are vastly different from the average predator. Great white sharks with their habitats, why they attack humans, and their diet and that is what makes these sharks so unique. Great white’s habitats is everywhere in the water they, so Great white sharks can be found most commonly found in New Smyrna Beach (in Florida), Hawaii, Southern Australia, and Western Australia. A typical great white…

continues to find) new sharks, I jumped in….to the story, not the ocean. Apparently, Dave Ebert travels to Taiwan because of a certain fish market. That market has dished him at least 10 new sharks, not yet documented. However, what’s really weird to me is that sharks have been around way longer than crocodilians. They have outlived dinosaurs. Sharks have been around for 450 million years. Here are some of my personal favorite sharks… The Frilled Shark I think all shark lovers know about the…

hundred species of sharks that range in size from less than 10 inches to over 20-30 feet long. The largest fish and shark in the world is the whale shark, which is believed to be a length of 30 feet long. Sharks are often stereotyped as dangerous and violent, and while in some cases this is true, but in today’s world they are captured and killed annually for a demand in their fins which leads to overfishing and illegal fishing, depleting shark populations worldwide. 3.2% of shark species are…
