Lateral Line & Hearing

Found that lateral line and hearing are linked so will put them together instead of 2 separate points.

Slight Adjustment

Starting to see that there isn't as much information on shark evolution regarding sensory organs as I'd like. Most likely will change project title, removing the evolution side of things and focus on the sensory organs and how they help the Great White become a successful predator.

Draft 2 of Title:

'How have the Great White Shark's sensory organs aided it in becoming one of the world's most successful predators?'

Books ordered

Tried to find some research books on great white biology. Local library was lacking so have requested a couple of books for inter-library exchange. Hopefully another library will have them.
Great White Shark
Great White Sharks: The biology of Carcharodon carcharias

Both deamed as the must have reference books for Great Whites so fingers crossed I can get hold of them.

Bibliography Notes

Few notes on where I'm getting my info from to make writing the bibliography a lot easier later on.
