How great white shark lives

Great white sharks are powerful coastal predators that hunt fish, seals, and other marine animals. Great white sharks can sense tiny electrical fields produced by living prey. Ocean animals navigate three-dimensional space, pressure, and constantly shifting currents.

Conservation

Status and habitat pressure

Vulnerable species face mounting risks and can decline quickly if habitats continue to shrink. Protecting great white shark also depends on keeping ocean, coast habitats healthy and connected.

Vulnerable species can decline quickly when habitat loss, climate pressure, or human conflict intensifies.
