Some people think great whites mean to attack us. They don't! In fact shark attacks are really rare. Most attacks are on surfers. They think surfers are seals.
When the shark eggs hatch the new sharks swim away quickly because the mother thinks they are prey. When the sharks are about 5 months old they start hunting rays. When they get older they start hunting seals.
Did you know that a sharks can smell blood from a mile away? That pretty cool! When great whites grow up they can be 20 feet long and weigh as much as 4,500 pounds. That's huge!
