"Killer" Shark found in Aberdeen...


People thought it was a Great White at first, but turns out to have been a Mako Shark. Which are smaller, but part of the same "Family".

Sun Report...

Idiots, I hadnt seen the Picture until just now.

I know a bit about sharks, and that looks nothing like a Great White. The Dorsal Fin is completely different.

If it is a Mako, its a Long Fin Mako...

It wasnt only the sun though. Everyone thought it was a Great White, till an expert had a look at the footage.

The Great White, Mako (Long fin and Short fin) and Porbeagle are all of the same family, and can warm their own blood. This means you can expect to see them more often round Britains coasts.
