Scientists once thought sharks never moved around much. They believed sharks didn’t travel far from the area where they were born. Now scientists are discovering that this may not be true. Tags were attached to the backs of six adult white sharks. The rage recorded data on the sharks. They traveled the location of the sharks for a year. The records showed that the sharks moved to warmer water in the winter. It seems that they do this to find food. Some fish and sea lions move to warmer ocean water in the winter. When the fish move, the sharks follow them. Data also shows that sharks and study their habits. It also explains why some areas have fewer fish and sea lions!

describe where a great white shark lives

Great white sharks live in many coastal and offshore waters around the world, including the coasts of Australia, South Africa, the United States, and Mexico. They prefer cooler water temperatures and are often found near rocky coastlines, beaches, and points where there are strong currents and upwelling of nutrient-rich water. Great whites are also known to migrate long distances to find food and mate.

The main idea of the passage is B. New studies show that sharks travel more than scientists once thought.
