Here are some sharks you might find in British waters:
* Basking shark: The second-largest fish in the world (after the whale shark), it's a filter feeder and harmless to humans.
* Common smooth-hound: A common shark found in shallow waters, it feeds on crustaceans and fish.
* Porbeagle shark: This species is known for its size and powerful teeth but is relatively rare in British waters.
* Spiny dogfish: One of the most common sharks in British waters, they are small and pose no threat to humans.
* Tope shark: Another common species found in shallow waters, they are rarely seen.
It's important to remember that all shark species play an important role in the marine ecosystem. While some can be dangerous, the vast majority are not a threat to humans. If you ever encounter a shark in the water, it's best to observe it from a safe distance and avoid any contact.
