That is slow.The Greenland shark weighs 1025 kg.The Greenland shark is really long at seven meters .

The females give birth to live young . They usually give birth to ten pup-s at a time which are a couple of feet in length at birth.  

The Greenland shark is poisonous unless you boil it multiple times using fresh water every time . The traditional Iceland method is too bury the meat in the ground and over time let it go through several cycles of freezing and thawing.

The Greenland shark is a prey because it sperm Whale and the killer whale try to get the Greenland shark but can't get it. The he Greenland shark is also a predator because it catches dead animals like fish.

Having small fins also means that it uses less energy to move and so they don`t get cold in the freezing water.The Greenland shark has no bones in its spine it has cartilage . Without bones that means that they can move without using so much energy.
