juvey sand sharks are 4-6 ft (the ones that are common in our waters
adults can be 7-9 ft
I think there are several species that are called "sand sharks" maybe. the fishermen that would catch these little guys right on the beach called them sand sharks.
Sand Shark
(Carcharias taurus) -- The Sand Shark likes to spend time in the bays and the larger ones are usually caught in the upper parts of our bays.
Most sand sharks are found from Cape Cod south, but they aren't found in great numbers below the Delaware Bay.
The sand shark's mouthful of teeth can send chills through you. Still, this is not a man-eater. Instead, it is somewhat sluggish and lives on the bottom of the sea or close to it.
The sand shark appears in our waters mostly in summer when the surface temperature reaches 60 to 70 degrees.
Most weigh less than 150 pounds but some have been caught weighing more than 200 pounds. The average length is 4 to 6 feet with the largest growing to 10 feet or more.

ok well I don't remember the sharks I saw being 4 feet long (I was a kid but I think I would have been freaked out if they were that big). maybe they were some other kind of little shark and the fishermen were just wrong.
take the Universal City tour, and you'll REALLY not be scared anymore...lol.
but, yes, the movie was scary for its time
i saw it on its initial release. and at that age(i was 10) i had my own psychological weapon to thwart shark attack. i always made sure there was at least one person between me and the open sea. my thinking was if a shark came in looking for something to munch on, it would take them first. of course that was blown out of the water as i got older and learnt theyd often came in closer to shore to feed.
hear my name
take a good look
this could be the day
hold my hand
lie beside me
i just need to say
Comments
