Save the Land Shark

The land shark is a rare and endangered species. Like its water based cousins it is an impressive hunter and a powerful swimmer. It preys on smaller creatures and its only real predator is man. However changing environments and pollution have threatened the very existence of the Land Shark.

The Land Shark prefers drier climates to its common cousins and in particular flat grass lands. It prefers sandy soils to clay as it is easier to swim through and doesn't like mountainous terrain as it finds it hard to swim up steep gradients. The now extinct mountain shark once hunted the remote himalayas but now its snowy peaks are silent, disturbed by generations of climbers, their rubbish polluting the environment. It is NOT too late to save the land shark.

The Land Sharks's flatlands are being built on and intensly farmed (pesticide as you can imagine will cause them considerable discomfort). Although a few countries have acknowledged the problem number fall by the year and in particular in china. Here the traditional medicinal use for the sharks eyes have caused a dramatic fall in numbers.

Unless we do something now we will have seen the last sharks fin, sweeping through the grass towards us, its majesty and might gone forever.
