The Often Misunderstood Great White Shark



The natural born killers are not so dangerous as many people used to think about.
Some recent studies have shown them as intelligent and although they are still considered to be the ultimate sea monster, the terror doesn't exist, except in the minds of people.

Watch this video from the Smithsonian Magazine and learn about them.
Try to guess some facts, choose from the different options:
Few creatures can match its size of...

  1. 35 feet long and 300 pounds weight
  2. 25 feet long and 3000 pounds weight
  3. 25 feet long and 6300 pounds weight

In the past ...

  1. 150 years only 74 failed attacks on humans have been recorded
  2. 200 years only 64 failed attacks on humans have been recorded
  3. 100 years only 74 failed attacks on humans have been recorded

Remember, swimmers in the water have better chance of being hit by lightning than killed by a whilte shark!
