Requiem Sharks are incredibly fast and effective hunters. Their elongated, torpedo-shaped bodies make them quick and agile swimmers, so they can easily attack any prey. They have a range of food sources depending on their location and species that includes bony fish, squids, octopuses, lobsters, turtles, marine mammals, seabirds, other sharks, and rays. Requiem Sharks are often considered the "garbage cans" of the sea because they will eat almost anything, even non-food items like trash.
