Sharks actually have 7 senses. 🤔 Sight, smell, taste, hearing, water pressure sensors, touch/feel, and electro-perception. Electro-perception means that sharks🦈 can sense electrical fields. So no matter how well potential prey camouflage themselves, the shark will sense the electrical field coming from its movement. How incredible is that? 🤯 #ProtectTheOceans #SharkAwarenessDay

📢 We love sharks, yes, we do!!! 🦈 These magnificent creatures play a vital role in maintaining healthy and balanced marine ecosystems. 💪 Check out our infographic to find out just how sharks do this. 👇 #ProtectTheOceans #SharkAwarenessDay

⚠️ People need the money that billionaires are hiding in tax havens. This year, we can change this!

In our new petition, we’re demanding wellbeing for all. Join us today! https://act.gp/3zN1po1
