What physical adaptations does a tiger shark have to catch its pray?

Tiger sharks eyes

have Excellent vision in low light and can detect electric fields

and tiny vibrations in the water. They can also adjust their eyes

quickly according to how light or dark the water is. These

adaptations allow the tiger shark to detect hidden prey. The jaw of

the tiger shark is adapted to be wide and powerful, enabling it to

eat and destroy anything. The tiger sharks teeth are adapted to be

very sharp and serrated, so that it can tear up all its pray,

including seals, birds, fish, other sharks and even turtle shells!

The teeth are also replaced over and over through the life of the

shark. This is so that when the tooth wears down, it is simply

replaced by a new tooth. The tiger shark also has lateral line

receptors . These are thin lines on the body that sense vibration

movement,water pressure, temperature and sound. These help the

shark to detect prey. The shark also has a great sense of smell,

which helps them to detect prey from a long way away. Tiger sharks

have stripes on their body, which help them to survive because it

helps them blend in. Tiger sharks have fins that help them to swim

so they can escape from predators, but they also have them to catch

prey. The caudal fin is the fin with the most power, and it really

proprels the shark along.
