  • Reading Level: Grade 4

Sharks are powerful, super-efficient eating machines. But how do they hunt? Discover the specialized features and tactics they use to capture prey, such as touch-sensitive teeth to identify food, an upper jaw that unhinges from the skull, and a vast array of specialized teeth. Meet all kinds of species, from the fearsome great white and hammerhead to the super-fast shortfin mako and the attack-launching angel shark. Brilliant photographs, clear diagrams, and spellbinding facts tell all about these mighty, deep-sea operators.
