    The perfect predator. Can’t survive out of water. What are sharks even doing??

      TBF, most land predators can’t even survive in water. The real perfect predators are dolphins. They were in the water, left it, and returned just to show us they still got it.

    Protipp: To make this dish more interesting, simply bury the meat in your back yard for a year.

      TIL Greenland sharks can live up to 500 years, take 150 years to reach sexual maturity and have a gestation period of up to 18 years. And apparently it takes a year in the back yard to prepare as well.

  Obligate ram breathing is kind of mind-blowing. They have to swim to flow water through their gills because their gills have no muscles to flap like most fish have.

  Only a few sharks are obligate ram breathers, though. Many species are able to take breaks from swimming.
