Add proper citation for Mississippi River occurrence.
[edit]The correct citation should be this one:

Ad-ons to Revisions and Additions
[edit]I added a new section titled evolutionary disconnect to indicate that the story of bull shark history is still something relatively new. I also added more information under the freshwater tolerance section because there were details missing about euharyline fish species. User: Robbins.260 15:03, 17 November 2014
Réunion Island
[edit]This shark is/was a major problem for Réunion, so I’m incredibly surprised that this map doesn’t mark the island as being within its range? 81.101.176.9 (talk) 04:48, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
