Sharks are reputed to be able to detect minute amounts of blood in water, and to be able to follow blood trails for miles. In fact, although sharks can detect blood at concentrations of as little as a few parts per billion, a very considerable quantity must be spilt before it is detectable amongst billions of gallons of seawater. Sharks actually use sounds and vibrations to locate most of their prey.

==Classification==
Evolutionary classification is addressed elsewhere. Sharks likely belong to the [[holobaramin]] that includes skates and rays. There is no need to discuss post-diluvian spread, as sharks can are not terrestrial.
