The crossed juvenile had a white hue.
He moves while walking thanks to his highly developed pectoral fins.
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
We can hear the bull shark is very dangerous because of attacks near La Réunion island.
However, tens of them are living at 600 feet from the famous beach of Playa Del Carmen in Mexico. And there are no attacks.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
