	Shark Species
		The white sharks most common prey is fish and seals, on the west coast of America white sharks feed on a lot of elephant seals, and in the Mediterranean Sea white sharks feed on a lot of tuna, and dolphins.
		This species is the most dangerous shark in the world and while it was once thought that sharks had poor eyesight (sharks have very good eyesight) and attacks where a case of mistaken identity, it is now known that attacks are probably due to the shark just merely testing the organism.
		The shark feeds on many different animals including jellyfish, lobster, small fish, squid, and octopuses using their knifelike teeth that are pointed to the back of the mouth.

	Orectolobiformes: Carpet Sharks
		Many carpet sharks are beautifully patterned with spots, saddles, ocelli, or mottled markings, hence the group's common name.
		In recent experiments by P.A. Pridmore, the bottom-walking behavior of the Epaulette Shark served as the model for the limb coordination that eventually enabled a tetrapod pioneer (probably an amphibian or proto-amphibian) to invade the terrestrial environment.
		The Whale Shark feeds at or near the surface, sometimes assuming a vertical orientation with its terminal mouth uppermost.

	2 SHARK RESOURCES IN CHINA
		The shark resources of the East and South China seas appear to be relatively abundant in view of the landings and the number of important species.
		Shark landings in Guangdong and Fujian provinces represent 80% of the national shark production (40% each), and the remaining 20% are from the Guangxi, Zhejiang, Hainan and Shanghai areas.
		In 1996, 4 608 tonnes of shark were caught in Fujian province, 100 tonnes of Chiloscyllium plagiosum, 40 tonnes of Carcharhinus sorrah and 76 tonnes of Carcharhinus melanopterus.

	Carpet sharks - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The order Orectolobiformes, also collectively known as the carpet sharks because many members have carpet-like patterned markings, includes a number of familiar types of sharks, such as the nurse sharks and whale shark, as well as some unusual species, such as the blind shark.
		Carpet sharks have two dorsal fins, without spines, and a small mouth that is forward of the eyes.
		The upper lobe of the caudal fin tends to be mostly in line with the body, while the lower lobe is poorly developed, except in the case of the whale shark.

	Carpet shark
		Carpet shark is any shark of the family Orectolobidae, found in tropical Indo-Pacific waters, having mottled skin and fleshy lobes along the sides of the head.
		These sharks are usually small bottom feeders much like the nurse shark in body shape and an interesting feature is that some use their fins to literally walk along the bottom.
		These sharks are egg-layers with juveniles 15 cm long growing to an adult size of one metre and the distinctive colour pattern easily distinguishes this shark from other similar-shaped carpet sharks.

	Underwater photography of a Nurse Shark Ginglymostoma cirratum shark cage diving
		Nurse sharks, Ginglymostoma cirratum, are sluggish bottom dwellers, congregating in large schools on the sea floor.
		Unlike most sharks, which take in water to breathe by swimming, the nurse shark often remains motionless, pumping water over its gills by opening and closing its mouth, and sometimes using it to suck in prey.
		Nurse sharks are distinguished by fleshy appendages resembling fangs that hang below their nose and provide a sense of touch that helps nurse sharks to locate food on the bottom of the ocean floor.
