Colossal creatures

The great white shark is the world’s largest known predatory fish. It propels itself through the water effortlessly using its highly efficient, streamlined body. Have fun building this mini great white shark kit using LEGO. Although realistic, it’s far from threatening, as it’s just 10 centimetres long!

For your chance to win one of 5 mini great white shark kits, solve this ‘Who am I?’ and send us a drawing of your answer.

Fossil records of my kind date back 400 million years. I am a top predator and vital to the marine ecosystem. Within my diverse family are more than 400 species, many of which are threatened with extinction through overfishing. My skeleton is made of cartilage, not bone, and I constantly shed and replace my teeth. It’s said I have a great sense of smell and am very sensitive to vibrations in the water. Who am I?
