Great white shark
Despite being top of the list of man-eaters, great whites are actually far more at danger from us than the other way around.
Great white sharks have a white belly and a grey back. The coloration makes it difficult for prey to spot the shark because it breaks up the shark’s outline when seen from a lateral perspective. When viewed from above, the darker shade blends in with the sea.
Great whites hunt fish, including other sharks, sea lions, seals, sea-birds, small whales, turtles, porpoises and carrion. They tend to attack from below the prey.
