Sharks are a relatively fierce species in the ocean, and their size is also very large. Generally speaking, sharks are solitary animals, and it is rare to see groups of sharks. However, in some special cases, they will break their solitude and meet up with other sharks. For example, female and male sharks may be attracted to each other during the mating season. However, if not in the mating period, and the opposite sex meet, not only will not be friendly, but also may be due to food problems and conflict, mutual attack is also very common.
In recent studies, researchers have also found some social phenomena, such as the phenomenon of great white sharks attacking and eating whales in groups in one study. Therefore, whether sharks live in groups or alone is still under study. Moreover, different species of sharks will also be different, some species of sharks may be basically solitary, but some species may be more likely to live in groups.
As mentioned above, sharks generally live in groups, but there are many different species of sharks, different species, shark habits and characteristics and living habits are different. Some species are more likely to live in groups. Dogfish, for example, is a small shark belonging to the family Squalidae, which often lives in groups and preys on other fish and invertebrates. Another common social shark is the spiny dogfish, which also tends to live in groups.
