btw whats yur source for the shark & croc bite figures?
Googled and took the highest for both I found.
Judging this fight strictly on who has the stronger bite is flawed, as Jaws, despite probably having a weaker bite is strong enough to bite through the Placid croc, as he eats through boats. That and the speed and agility factor.
I said "probably", because Jaws is clearly not your average large great white shark, going by movie feats.

wuz rightsux for evolution 😕 [/B]
Okay?
Originally posted by RobtardIt means that for their overall size/weight, great whites don't bite as hard as crocs.
1.8 tons of bite isn't "super-weak" and I don't follow the "goes against evolution", as that is definitely enough force to obliterate anything the shark preys on, fish and seals.

1st off yo figure is wrong, article says the bite is weak so it gotta be way less then 1.8
also the great white could eat more things (like those big sea turtles) if there bite measure up to their size. they could even take on big predators like whales (that means more food supply)
basicly : evolution says that sharks NEED strong jaws (more then crocs)
yet they aint got, despite their jaw size (waste of size, that aint logical for a predator)
therefore big prob for evolution
six6six : u forgot to quote the last part 😄

Weak for their specific overall size and weight. Weak compared to other animals that are smaller, yet have stroger bites. Understand now? Still a very strong bite.
No, that is no what "evolutions says." Their bite is strong enough to obliterate their main food sources, fish and seals, so to dummy it down, 'evolution works'.
Sharks have also been around for millions of years, tells me that their evolutionary standing is doing something right.

I mean why do crocs have so abnormaly strong jaws? crocs are also big, plus they dont even need to crush things
sharks on the other hand could use strong jaws . btw many shark species have gone extinct, maybe todays sharks are next 😉

Actually, it makes sense the way it is because the sharks having such sharp teeth compinsates for the lack of strength that their jaws have and to be honest, like Robtard said, the shark bite isn't really THAT weak. It depends on how you look at it. On the other hand you have a croc with cone shaped teeth which are nowhere near as sharp as a sharks, so they use their powerful jaws to rip thier prey apart.
Originally posted by six6sixif so evolution woudve given both species strong jaws AND sharp teeth to maximize there chances 😄 thats more logical anyways

oh and sharks sharp teeth now way "compensates" for weak jaws. if a great white tries to eat a sea turtle it just gonna break it teeth at best 😂

Jaws can sense the croc from far away. Rob pointed that out, via blood in the water or ripples in the water. Jaws is faster, more manuveurable, and has a stronger bite. Advantage to Jaws in every way.
I dont know where you guys are coming up with this "Jaws has a stronger bite" crap. It's been posted numerous times already. Crocs got a WAY stronger bite.

You're not grasping it. A sharks mouth and bite are optimized to eat it's main food sources, so in short "evolution worked."
Because of how crocs eat and their food sources. They grab, hold on and tear, usually with the help of other crocs, so they need the high grasping power.
Todays sharks are in danger due to overfishing of their food sources, excessive hunting (mainly the Japanese and Chinese) and polution. Not because they have as you say "weak bites."
Originally posted by SoulDevourermaybe its other stats can give it the win but now I aint sure. crocs got "armor" and apparently sharks jaws can do zilch against armored prey
Crocs don't have armor, they have scaley hides. It's not ficking Kevlar; it's not bullet proof nor could it withstand 1.8 tons of bite, and that's from a regualr great white, not a fictional one with above average abilities like Jaws is protrayed.

The croc is gonna have to swim around with it's mouth open, it Jaws gets ahold of it's snout and it's mouth is closed, it's finished.
....just out of curiousity, in that Animal Planet shite, when the croc did the death roll to the sharks nose and they both went down, they were both upside down. Now, this isn't necessarily gonna happen here, but I thought I heard somewhere that if a fish/shark is upside down, that it could drown. I could be wrong, it's just something I thought I heard.

Holding it closed, yes, this is true. But once the croc clamps his jaws on you, chances are, he ain't letting go. Crocs also have an insanely quick strike.

my point is sharks could do even better, WAY better
with strong jaws they could have way bigger VARIETY of food sources (more chance of survival if one of their food sources go scarce) not to mention better fight other predators (again better survival chance)
I mean thats how evolution works right? it keeps makin species even better (evolve = get better)
it dont just give them the "strict minimum" 🤨
Im not saying evolution theory is wrong Im just saying it make mistakes sometimes (look at cheetahs & leopards lol)
btw "grasping" dont need strong jaws 🤨 only strong pointed teeth (and crocs allready have the right teeth)
strong jaws only needed to cruch things
