The **tiger shark** is the fourth largest shark in the world after the whale shark, the basking shark and the great white shark and is visually distinguished by the characteristic dark stripes on its body, which fade with age. The potentially endangered shark species not only has an extremely large range, but also feeds very versatile. Hunting sea turtles is a unique behavior for the tiger shark. The tiger shark is an ovoviviparous cartilaginous fish - this means that the young first hatch from eggs in the womb before they are born. As an apex predator, the tiger shark is considered the most dangerous shark to humans after the bull shark and great white shark, with the most shark accidents attributed to it.
