Endangered Species : Sharks : Ganges Sharks


  • >> Critically Endangered.
  • A little-known species, lives in freshwater, inshore marine and estuarine systems.
  • The Ganges shark is largely restricted to the rivers of Eastern and North-Eastern India.
  • Appearance of a typical requiem shark. Stocky. Broadly rounded snout, with small eyes.
  • The shark appears to pose a threat to humans , but this has not been proven. Though some consider the Ganges shark to be "extremely dangerous", it has so far been impossible to separate its attacks from those of Bull Sharks.
