Right, here is my question.

What type of shark can regulate its body temperature (also known as homeothermy) and occur in the north pacific ocean?


As far as I know Great Whites and Mako sharks can regulate their body temprature which helps in hunting with speed and agility. I am unsure whether they occur in the north pacific ocean but I believe great whites could be anywhere. :)

Well, we have a winner. Congrats Blade, it is the Salmon Shark. :cheer:

@ Vanhimself

Great White Sharks are endothermic poikilotherm and Salmon Sharks homeothermic.

The great wikipedia says the following:
Endothermic is the ability of some creatures to control their body temperatures through internal means such as muscle shivering or increasing their metabolism

Endothermic is thermoregulation that maintains a stable internal body temperature regardless of external influence. This temperature is often, though not necessarily, higher than the immediate environment. The opposite is poikilothermy.
