Facts About Sharks

Do you know any facts about sharks? If so, let's hear them! It would also be good to hear some of the 'almost facts' that everyone thinks are facts about sharks, but are actually just myths that have carried on throughout time.

To start things off. As far as I know:
  • Sharks don't blink, but they do have upper and lower eyelids
  • Sharks are usually cold-blooded, but some of them can raise the temperature of their to be above that of the surrounding
  • The largest shark in the world is the Whale Shark and it's about 15m long
