Sharks - the basics
Sharks have roamed our seas for more than 400 million years, which means they inhabited the earth for nearly 200 million years before dinosaurs.
Sharks are fish with skeletons made of cartilage instead of bone, but sharks’ slow growth and late maturity mean they have more in common with sea turtles and marine mammals than bony fish such as flounder or tuna.
