THE EXTREME: GREAT WHTE SHARKS

Carcharodon carcharias
Carcharias or the Great White Shark is one of the most extreme species on Earth.  I may also be known as the "Great White", the "White Death", the "White Pointer", etc.  They are often featured in many films, such as "Jaws" and best-selling novels.  


Although this being is known for it's size and teeth it is also categorized as "vulnerable" for threaten species.  It may be the largest known macropredatory fish since it is the primary predator for large marine mammals.  It has a strong bite force and its general size ranges from 3-4 meters and 1,500 - 2,400 pounds as males while females are slightly larger.  


The blue area sums up the range of the Great White's habitats around the globe.  

Great White Sharks are Extreme creatures!
