Sink your teeth into an amazing "out of water" shark experience.
Planet Shark: Predator or Prey, The Exhibition guides visitors through the murky myths and fascinating facts which have surrounded sharks for centuries. Featuring explanations and examinations of almost every aspect of the shark, from evolution and biology to popular culture and the fin trade, you'll gain a whole new level of respect for the oceans oldest and most effective predator.
In this creative and engaging exhibition you'll find displays of full-scale specimen models, the king of which is the record-setting, 5.5 metre Great White. Also on display are rows upon rows of fossils dating back as far as 380 million years, real teeth and jaws, and no shark collection would be complete without a little media hype - you can get a first-hand glimpse of artefacts from the 1975 edition of Jaws and also see interviews with real life shark attack survivors.
One of nature's oldest - and most feared - creatures, the shark is also one of the most misunderstood. Fishing pressure and media misrepresentation have put this magnificent animal in grave danger of extinction. Planet Shark: Predator or Prey, The Exhibition is a great educational step to help preserve these necessary predators.
