"They swarm any foe that invades their territory. Their sharp fangs can tear out boat hulls." | |
"Each school has its own territory. Any intruders are mercilessly attacked with fangs bared." "If they scent the faintest trace of blood, they rush to attack en masse. When alone, they’re rather cowardly." | |
