Sharks are carnivores, and each species has a specific diet that ranges from fish and crustaceans to larger mammals like seals and whales. However, some sharks are not picky eaters and will prey on anything that moves. In this episode, SharkFest will take viewers on a journey to discover some of the most notorious and feared species known for their indiscriminate feeding habits.

We'll explore the science behind their powerful jaws and teeth and learn why the great white is so well-suited to hunt and devour prey.

Finally, we'll take a trip to the deep sea to explore the feeding habits of the rarely seen goblin shark. These bizarre creatures have long, protruding jaws that shoot out to capture prey. We'll learn how they've evolved to hunt in the dark, depths of the ocean and uncover what they feast on in their deep sea habitat.
