This is the range of the Salmon Shark. Generally this shark resides anywhere from surface level to 500 ft. below sea level. On occasion this shark has been known to come inshore.


The Salmon Shark (pictured left) also has a close relation to the Great White Shark (pictured right).

Here is a helpful guide that shows the shark's second keel, which helps strengthen the tail. It also helps streamline the shark. This is an important characteristic that helps them swim at speeds of up to 50 mph./80.4 kph.!


The Salmon Shark's prey includes... Salmon! It also includes other animals like squid (pictured right).
