A DAY IN THE LIFE OF BRUCE THE SHARK

Hello Everyone! I'm Bruce, the Great White Shark.

I live off of the coast of Africa. I am 7 years old, and I'm 16 feet long. I weigh about 3,450 pounds.

I'm a carnivore, and thanks to my serrated teeth, and long, muscular body, I can quickly catch prey with ease.

I am part of the Class Elasmobranchii, so my skeleton is made completely out of cartilage.

I have many talents, but my ability to smell tiny amounts of blood from up to three miles away helps me track prey, which is the most useful.

I lost a tooth today, but it's okay. I have a big mouth, and it's filled with hundreds of razor sharp teeth. Plus I'll never stop loosing or growing teeth for the rest of my life so I'll never wear dentures.

Occasionally I like to have fun and scare a few
people.....


.....But I rarely ever do it.....plus I never eat them....

It's been fun, but I must keep swimming forward or else I'll sink!

Bye!
