Should a tassled wobegong be another species or not?

Round 1

1 of 1

I think the term species is not well-understood. Species isn’t a word you just get to define however you want.


Carpet sharks are very different from other sharks, so it wouldn’t be crazy to not classify them as sharks.


The Tasselled wobbegong is already in its own genus


Sharks were originally called “sea dogs” and were not very well-known.


Science is ever-changing, so definitions don’t really mean anything.

I meant that we shouldn’t get to the point of hatred.

About the “lies,” that’s your opinion.

Thank you. Remember, just because we disagree on certain things doesn’t mean we have to hate on each other.

I’ll just accept because it should be easy and it’s not long at all.
