Shortfin mako sharks are thought to be the fastest shark species. These sharks can grow to a length of about 13 feet and a weight of about 1,220 pounds. They have a light underside and a bluish coloration on their back.
Sharks belong to the class of boneless fish known as Chondrichthyes. The Chondrichthyes class is divided in two sub-classes Holocephali {Chimeras) and Elasmobranchii {Sharks and Rays}. Similar species of sharks are put into Families, and families with similar characteristics are placed in larger groups called Orders.
