Hammerhead, bronze whaler, wobbegong....


Wow! A hammerhead's eyes can be as far apart as 91.5cm (3ft!)
Here's the kids using there team skills to wrestle the tape measure and get an accurate measurement of how far apart that is.

Over to Tui now.....

here are some interesting facts about sharks

A lemon shark can stay in as little as 91.5 of water that water! that water depth is only up to Pearl's shoulder.

The sharks we will see at Kelly Tarltons are the Bronze Whaler, the school shark the Broadnose sevengill shark and the Wobbegon shark.

The bronze whaler shark is 3.5m long

The school shark is (1.7m) the broadnose sevengill shark is (3m) A wobbegong shark is (3.3m)

i liked measureing them.
