Carcharhinus leucas
This is an aggressive species that is considered the most dangerous to humans, even more so than the Great White and the Tiger Shark. This is because of the Bull Shark's omnivorous diet (i.e. EATS EVERYTHING) and habitat preferences.
This species may be found in murky water, where the splashing of a swimmer could be mistaken for a struggling fish. It is a large species which grows to a length of 13 feet. Also, it adapts from salt water to brackish (part salt part fresh water) so it is found far upriver where no one would expect a shark to be found.
The Bull Shark has also been called the Zambezi, Ground shark, Shovelnose, Slipway Grey River Shark, Freshwater Whaler, Estuary Whaler and Swan River Whaler. It has a distinct thick body, short blunt snout, triangular serrated teeth in the upper jaw, and a small eye. It is grey above and pale below, sometimes with a pale stripe on the flank.
The Bull Shark can live from coastal marine and estuarine, to freshwater. It has been recorded from the surf zone down to a depth of 450 feet. It is the only species of shark that is known to stay for extended periods in freshwater.
It has been reported 2500 miles from the sea in the Amazon River system, and is known to breed in Lake Nicaragua, Central America, and has a widespread distribution in tropical & warm temperate waters of the world.
