Like a bee, before they sting you they feel threatened by you. So they sting you. Kinda like a shark, right? People mostly kill sharks because of their fins. Brutal People! Just Brutal! So, Save Sharks, Don’t Destroy Them.

Okay, so me I personally prefer sharks not humans. Even though i am a human….. still. Humans don’t only kill sharks. Fishermen or hunters kill animals that will kill them, like a lion or something viscous. . How Rude! What i mean by only killing them for their fins are, when fishermen or hunters capture them, they cut of their fins and throw them back in the water. Then bring the sharks far away to another country, not United States. But somewhere like China. It was eaten in a Chinese restaurant. Then people that work at a restaurant or a factory, make soup out of the sharks fins. It’s called fin soup. Then the people think they are so cool because they have killed these sharks that did nothing to them. Poor things..

Sharks will mostly kill people from like, well lets just say, you cut yourself on a rock and you start to bleed. Sharks can sense blood so they go

Like you know how people kill 11,000 sharks, almost 12,000. So should we kill 1 in a million years, please. Or not even kill any? See, that's what mean by limit. People kill to many creatures, not just sharks, like fish, crabs, even sea creatures. They kill lions, tigers, elephants just for their tusk. Also they kill animals that don’t even belong in the country. Like koalas, ostriches and other animals. So people, like hunters, should only kill animals if the animals are trying to kill them.

    Another important adaptation that the Megalodon shark had that was very beneficial to it was its skin. The Megalodons skin was assumed to be similar to the Great White sharks skin. Therefore, its skin was sleek and slippery looking which Figure 10: Shark skin in high magnification (Meyer, 2013) helped the shark move through the water due to less friction. This was beneficial when hunting, for they could swim faster in order to catch prey. Although the skin of the Megalodon looked sleek, it was actually made up of thousands of small dermal denticals which gave it a rough texture as shown in Figure 10.…

    The premier of Western Australia, Colin Barnett, had announced the shark culling policy in 2014 in response to the shark attack fatalities. The shark culling policy authorizes sharks larger than three metres, such as: the great white, bull and tiger sharks to be slaughtered. Sharks smaller than three metres would be liberated offshore. I highly believe that sharks shouldn’t be culled no matter what size they are. We are in the sharks’ habitation and there are other procedures to prevent shark attacks.…

    Sharkwater Rhetorical Analysis Sharkwater is a 2006 documentary created by Rob Stewart, a young biologist and underwater photographer. Being passionate about the ocean and those who inhabit it, Stewart created his documentary with the intention of destroying the bad reputation that society and the media has put on sharks. Stewart also highlights in his documentary how humans have cruelly made sharks the prey and the enemy for decades. Ethos, pathos, and logos played a very important role in Sharkwater, and was strategically used throughout the documentary in order to persuade the audience that sharks aren’t the enemy, and shouldn’t be treated as such. Pathos, the appeal to one’s emotions, was heavily relied on throughout the documentary in…

    Science Paper Marine biologists study the behaviors of all marine organisms. They also have a lot of knowledge on all marine organisms. However, everything there is to know about the carnivorous great white sharks’ species hasn’t been discovered yet. Scientists can only do so much with these organisms in a controlled environment (or captivity) before an incident occurs where the shark either dies or puts others in danger. Erik Vance’s article, “Why Great White Sharks Are Still a Mystery to Us” provides examples of instances where great whites were put in captivity: “They refuse to live behind glass—in captivity some have starved themselves or slammed their heads against walls.…

Both are important to the ecosystem, and without them, the world would be much worse off. Bees are disappearing, and without them, Earth is in trouble. Bees are responsible for most of the flowers and fruit that humans enjoy. They spread pollen so plants can reproduce.…

    It is not just these animals who must live in these kind of situations, but sea animals are forced into tiny tanks where they will remain there for the rest of their lives. Keeping animals in captivity for our own use is infringement of an animal’s right to be free from human abuse. The crazy thing is that even in their own environment these poor and defenseless animals are hunted down and used for our own purposes. Sharks, for example, are hunted down for their fins and only their fins. Sharks have been living on earth for over 400 million years.…

    The culling of sharks is not the only way to ensure that the ocean is safe. Sharks have populated the earth for over four hundred million years and now, people want to remove them from our oceans [Williamson, 2015].
