With its streamlined silhouette and impressive jaw, the great white shark is arguably the most iconic marine predator. Found in many oceans, it can grow up to 6 meters long and move at high speeds to surprise its prey.
Surprisingly, the white shark has highly developed senses, capable of detecting a drop of blood several hundred meters away or perceiving the electric fields emitted by its prey. Contrary to popular belief, it does not systematically attack humans: its real prey are mainly seals, turtles, and large fish. Solitary but powerful, it plays an essential role in the balance of marine ecosystems by regulating the populations of its prey.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the great white shark: streamlined body, imposing dorsal fin and realistic details of the mouth. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent spectacular adventures or raise children's awareness of the importance of protecting sharks and their habitats.
