Mako Sharks:

Makos are worldwide in distribution, favoring tropical and temperate waters. They do not school, and they are never seen in very large numbers. Like the porbeagle, the mako tends to inhabit deeper waters than the great white.

One final note about the mako's swimming style, by comparison to blue sharks: Blue sharks are slim, sinuous swimmers, turning and twisting by using their long, curved pectoral fins. By contrast, the mako is a stiff-bodied swimmer, propelling itself through the water with short strokes of its thick, powerful tail. When seeing a mako in its own element, one has the overall impression of blue muscular efficiency.
