Many sharks are active hunters and chase after their prey. Some sharks wait to grab victims. Others are scavengers, feasting on the dying and dead bodies of animals. The shark is curious about unfamiliar food in the ocean. Great whites are always on the lookout for food. The shark takes out lumps of food out of their victims. Every single one of its tooth has tiny sharp points along its edges. When a shark starts to feed, it bites hardly and shakes its head from left to right. They take out a huge bite then they move on, leaving their prey with massive wounds. When their prey is weak and can't move the shark comes back,and it finally eats the prey.
