Description

Although great white sharks (white sharks) are a species that dates back 70 million years, records indicate the presence of sharks 450 million years ago. This means sharks were searching for ocean prey while dinosaurs roamed the land! They can grow over 20 feet in length and live up to 60 years. White sharks are the number one predator of the elephant seals with most attacks occurring near the surface. Elephant seals mitigate this threat by diving to depths that the shark cannot reach. The seals actually spend 90% of their time in the depths of the ocean only to spend 2-3 minutes at the surface to breathe. The typical dive duration is 20 minutes, but they can dive and hold their breath for up to 2 hours!

Exquisitely hand crafted in Peru from Peruvian alpaca by Lanart Alpaca, needle felting is an art using fiber to create soft sculptures.
