Shark Trivia

Did You Know that Sharks live longer than previously believed….

.….because scientists were previously unable to properly age them because of the sharks’ soft cartilage? The traditional method has been by counting growth bands on vertebrae. Scientists though have begun measuring age with newer methods such as bomb carbon dating and measuring the radioactivity exuded from nuclear bombs in over 50 species of sharks. This has proven to be a more accurate method. What they have found is that sharks live longer than previously expected and are among the oldest vertebrates on Earth.

The oldest living sharks (with average life span) include:

  1. Greenland Shark (272 – 500)

  2. Whale Sharks (70 – 100)

  3. Spiny Dogfish (25 – 100)

  4. Great White Shark (60-70)

  5. Porbeagle Shark (30 – 65)

  6. School Shark (more than 55 years)

  7. Tiger Shark (27 – 50)

  8. Dusky Shark (35 – 50)

  9. Sandbar Shark (20 - 30)

  10. Hammerhead Sharks (20 – 30)
