 * yellow15098 || i think that the world needs every speecies it has in order to thrive, if you dont have on(shrks) than you have more of the other(fish, seals walruses, and other sea creatures). || green328: I agree. If sharks die/hunted out than there will be a lot more fish in the sea. ||
 * green328 || If the world didn't have sharks, less people would be spit up by a great white. || Blue663: I agree some what. If the shark population died the fish popullation would increase. ||
 * Blue663 || If the sharks were to vanish off the face of the earth, the fish popullation would dramaticly increase. ||  ||
