In addition, Shark’s adaptability in searching for food may also allow them to survive from extinction.

But, although sharks have managed to avoid mass extinctions before with their adaptability, they are currently facing an unprecedented challenge, such as human activity.

"Sharks have dealt with climate change quite well in the past, but the biggest challenge for the world's sharks and rays today is overfishing," Gavin Naylor remarked.

The role of sharks in the marine ecosystem as a whole cannot be underestimated. Remember, sharks are apex predators that make them able to play an important role in regulating the stability of organisms lower in the food chain.
