About Sharks
Sharks have fascinated and terrified man for thousands of years. Although 'shark attack' is one of the ways media companies get attention, only 10-15 people are killed by sharks each year, while humans kill over 100 million sharks annually. Many shark populations are threatened with extinction.
About Species
Species are able to reproduce, and is also the most specific major classification in biology. Living things that are very alike are still considered separate species if they cannot mate and produce fertile offspring.
About Predators
The sequel to 'Predator', 'Predator 2', and spun-off from the 'Alien' movie franchise, 'Predators' stars Adrian Brody, Danny Trejo, Topher Grace, and Laurence Fishburne as captured expert killers who must survive on a game preserve planet, where they are hunted.
