	Shark
		Shark eyes are similar to the eyes of other vertebrates, including similar lenses, corneas and retinas, though their eyesight is well adapted to their marine environment.
		Once the shark is in the general area of the prey, then the shark begins to use a combination of its smell coupled with the use of the lateral lines running along the side of the shark, used to sense electrical pulses sent out by wounded or dying fish.
		Sharks include everything from the hand-sized pygmy shark, a deep sea species, to the whale shark, the largest fish (although sharks are not closely related to bony fish) which is believed to grow to a maximum length of 18m (59 feet) and which, like the great whales, feeds only on plankton.

		Despite it's own robotic-sounding title, "Future Shark" is much more of a standard nature-research show than "Anatomy of a Shark Bite." The premise is that technology has advanced so much over the past few years that scientists are able to study some of the sharks anew, as if for the first time.
		It's the "future" of shark research that's alluded to in the title, but really scientists pursue their studies of three species: the bottom-dwelling angel shark, the gigantic whale shark, and the barbelled nurse shark.
