Why are sharks important

People say sharks are bad but actually they are very important in the ecosystem of the ocean.
Sharks clean up the ocean for us. They eat dead animals and leave the ocean nice and blue.
Also sharks are important to us because they are mysterious to us.


And the most important thing, if there are no more sharks, parrot fish and other types of fish will eat all the coral.
A wealthy reef means that the sharks are Ok around here!

Some people might think hippos are purple or blue, they are wrong, Hippos are blue and purple in cartoons. Hippos are actually the can be gray or dark brown with pink dots on its head. Ok maybe they can be purple or blue but its really not possible.

Moby Dick

Sometimes you can be amazed, but not at certain times like this.








When I watch this video it makes me feel....
Wonderful! and amazed!

When we went to New Zealand we went on a excursion to watch Sperm Whales! But it wasn't as amazing as that.

This is a Sperm Whale [ Moby Dick ]. A huge whale with teeth! Usually whales have Baleen. Baleen is a filter-feeder system inside the mouths of baleen whales.





Photo displaying dozens of baleen plates. The plates face each other, and are evenly spaced at approximately 0.25 inches (1 cm) intervals. The plates are attached to the jaw at the top, and have hairs at the bottom end.
