It lived in non-marine aquatic environments. you mentioned that these were predators, what more can you tell me about them as predators? Fully grown "Jaekelopterus" would have been apex predators in their environments and likely preyed upon smaller arthropods (including resorting to cannibalism) and early vertebrates. you mean they ate each other, but what would be the benefit? UNANSWERABLE what harm can come by eating each other? It has been shown in some studies that the risk of encountering an infected victim increases when there is a higher cannibalism rate. do you know any other species that eats each other? Aquatic ecosystems please tell me more about this Communities of organisms that are dependent on each other and on their environment live in aquatic ecosystems. can you please name a few of these organisms Whales, sharks, and tuna live etc can you please describe the first one to me UNANSWERABLE can you please describe the second one to me They are characterized by a cartilaginous skeleton, five to seven gill slits on the sides of the head, and pectoral fins that are not fused to the head. what are their different types?

Tiger shark [SEP] Introduction
The tiger shark ("Galeocerdo cuvier") is a species of requiem shark and the only extant member of the genus Galeocerdo. It is a large macropredator, capable of attaining a length over . Populations are found in many tropical and temperate waters, especially around central Pacific islands. Its name derives from the dark stripes down its body, which resemble a tiger's pattern, but fade as the shark matures. The tiger shark is a solitary, mostly nocturnal hunter. It is notable for having the widest food spectrum of all sharks, with a range of prey that includes crustaceans, fish, seals, birds, squid, turtles, sea snakes, dolphins, and even other smaller sharks.
