The Bull Shark (Carcharhinus leucas) is a powerful, aggressive ocean predator found in warm, shallow waters worldwide. Measuring up to 11.5 feet and weighing up to 500 pounds, these adaptable creatures can also thrive in freshwater environments, such as rivers and estuaries. Bull Sharks possess a unique osmoregulatory system, allowing them to maintain a stable internal salt balance. They are known for their unpredictable behavior and are considered one of the most dangerous shark species to humans. Their diet consists of fish, dolphins, and even other sharks. Bull Sharks play a vital role in maintaining marine ecosystems by controlling prey populations.
