The Great White

The Great White is a large predatory shark known scientifically as *Carcharodon carcharias*. It is renowned for its size, reaching up to 20 feet long, and its powerful jaws filled with sharp teeth. Found in coastal waters across the world's oceans, Great Whites are known for their remarkable hunting abilities, often preying on seals and other marine animals. They are an important part of marine ecosystems, but their populations are threatened due to overfishing and habitat loss. Great Whites are often associated with shark attacks, which are rare and typically misunderstandings.
