Description: The Great White Shark, also known as Carcharodon carcharias, is one of the most fascinating inhabitants of the oceans. This majestic creature glides through the clear waters near Geyser Rock and Dyer Island off the coast of South Africa. This area is home to numerous African penguins, cormorants, and a large colony of South African fur seals. The Great White Shark, a surface hunter, often lurks near the water's surface to surprise its prey. Its impressive size, strength, and fearsome jaws make it a constant threat to the seals in this area.
