Why does shark meat stink?

Sharks do not have urinary systems. Their excretory systems are concentrated with their reproductive systems. Sharks generally use their reproductive systems to excrete. When the reproductive system cannot meet the excretory needs of sharks, some of the excrement will be excreted through the shark's skin, so shark meat is relatively smelly.

Can sharks be eaten?

Some parts of sharks are edible. Currently, a few stalls in large domestic aquatic markets sell shark meat for consumption. Sharks are marine animals, and a few species enter freshwater. They are fast-swimming medium-to-large marine fish.

Do sharks dare to eat blue whales?

Sharks will eat the carcasses of blue whales. It is difficult for sharks to kill blue whales alive because blue whales are much larger than sharks and their sebum is very thick, so sharks cannot do anything to blue whales. Sharks also have their own fixed food chain, and blue whales are not in their food chain.
