Did you know that a Great White Shark loses and replaces a few thousand teeth in its lifetime?

Did you know that a Great White Shark loses and replaces a few thousand teeth in its lifetime? Talk about efficiency and putting a dentist out of business! This is actually true for most Shark Species. Shark Teeth are amazing in their design and each species of shark has its own specific shape tooth unique to it. Sharks are also cancer free. No one is 100% certain why this is true but some scientists speculate that the huge Shark Liver and high urea content may have something to do with it? Sharks also do not have bones but instead have a heavy armature of Shark Cartilage, which is actually used in some cultures (Including US) to help with arthritis and other ailments.
