Lemon sharks can also be found at depths up to 300 feet (90 m).]]> 2021-03-15 14:49:14 UTC https://padlet.com/avilesdj22/w17pdqjxqev6un5p/wish/1311047205 avilesdj22 https://padlet.com/avilesdj22/w17pdqjxqev6un5p/wish/1311052332 The Lemon Sharks diet consists of a very broad range of preys eating rays, seabirds, others sharks, and all kinds of fish species]]> 2021-03-15 14:50:09 UTC https://padlet.com/avilesdj22/w17pdqjxqev6un5p/wish/1311052332 avilesdj22 https://padlet.com/avilesdj22/w17pdqjxqev6un5p/wish/1311061628 They tend to prefer a prey when it is more abundant and available. Lemon sharks feed selectively on species that are slower and more easily captured by using a stalking technique. Lemon sharks feed on prey that are intermediate in size compared to other available prey. This tendency can be explained by the tradeoff between the probability of capture and the profitability when it comes to prey size]]> 2021-03-15 14:51:50 UTC https://padlet.com/avilesdj22/w17pdqjxqev6un5p/wish/1311061628 avilesdj22 https://padlet.com/avilesdj22/w17pdqjxqev6un5p/wish/1311067245 The Lemon shark is viviparous, meaning that they give live birth.
