Known for its whip-like tail and ferocious hunting techniques, the thresher shark is one of the scariest sharks in the sea! Surprisingly, the thresher shark does not hunt with its teeth, but with its amazing tail that is often as long as the shark's entire body. While not aggressive toward humans, thresher sharks herd schools of fish together before attacking multiple fish at one time. In this book, you'll learn about the thresher shark's diet, habitat, and behavior. With links to videos that show you the thresher shark in its natural habitat, you'll be able to experience how these sharks live and hunt. You'll also learn about why the thresher shark population is currently declining and what needs to be done to stop it. Lastly, you'll learn about how you can encounter these amazing animals in the wild--if you dare! Every book in The Amazing World of Sharks is full of fascinating information about where and how sharks live. From the well-known great white shark to the hardly seen goblin shark, this series will take you on a journey deep into the ocean's depths where you'll learn about different shark species and how they can be protected. Each title in this series includes color photos throughout, and back matter including: an index and further reading lists for books and internet resources. Key Icons appear throughout the books in this series in an effort to encourage library readers to build knowledge, gain awareness, explore possibilities and expand their viewpoints through our content rich non-fiction books. Key Icons in this series are as follows: Words to Understand are shown at the front of each chapter with definitions. These words are set in boldfaced type in that chapter, so that readers are able to reference back to the definitions--building their vocabulary and enhancing their reading comprehension. Sidebars are highlighted graphics with content rich material within that allows readers to build knowledge and broaden their perspectives by weaving together additional information to provide realistic and holistic perspectives. Educational Videos are offered in chapters through the use of a QR code, that, when scanned, takes the student to an online video showing a moment in sports' history, a speech, or an instructional video. This gives the readers additional content to supplement the text. Text-Dependent Questions are placed at the end of each chapter. They challenge the reader's comprehension of the chapter they have just read, while sending the reader back to the text for more careful attention to the evidence presented there. Research Projects are provided at the end of each chapter as well and provide readers with suggestions for projects that encourage deeper research and analysis. And a Series Glossary of Key Terms is included in the back matter containing terminology used throughout the series. Words found here broaden the reader's knowledge and understanding of terms used in this field.

This important and exciting title represents the first authoritative volume focussed on pelagic (open ocean) sharks as a group. Virtually every pelagic shark expert in the world has contributed to this landmark publication which includes the latest data and knowledge on pelagic shark biology, fisheries, management, and conservation. Pelagic sharks face unprecedented levels of exploitation in all the world's oceans through both direct fisheries and by-catch, and effective management for these species is contingent upon solid science and data, which this book brings together for the first time. All those involved in shark biology will need to have a copy of this book.

"Common thresher sharks (Alopias vulpinus) along the west coast of North America are seasonally distributed in coastal waters from British Columbia, Canada to central Baja California, Mexico. Juvenile common thresher sharks tend to remain in shallow, nearshore areas over the continental shelf, especially within the Southern California Bight (SCB), which is an important nursery area. The horizontal distributions of common and bigeye thresher sharks are thought to overlap partially, with bigeye thresher sharks generally exploiting deeper waters. In contrast, there is relatively little overlap in the distributions of common and pelagic thresher sharks, except for years with large El Nino-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) events, when the distribution of pelagic thresher sharks shift northwards. In this assessment, common thresher sharks along the west coast of North America are assumed to be a single, well-mixed stock. This assumption is supported by their genetics, tagging data, and seasonal movements. The mitochondrial genetic sequences of common thresher sharks from California waters are not significantly different from Oregon-Washington waters but both are significantly different from other sampling locations, noting that there have not been any published comparisons with samples from Mexico. There is also no evidence of pupping and nursery grounds outside of the SCB. Tags from common thresher sharks tagged in the SCB have been returned from California, USA, and Baja California, Mexico. There is also unlikely to be substantial interchange of individuals between this stock and other common thresher shark stocks because, geographically, the closest stock is likely to be along the west coast of Chile"--Executive summary.
