“Wow, while what you wtote sounds well thought out it’s a load of...... The sharks do not delay mating, nothing you said has any substance.”
So the article was lying: “Incredibly, Greenland sharks don’t reach sexual maturity until the age of 156, but it can happen as young as 134 according to findings.” As I said, they have an extended period of immaturity, sexual immaturity. Sand Sharks are sexually mature at 16-29 yrs, great whites at 26-33, and blue sharks at 5-6.
And I’m sorry to burst your scientific fantasy, but any animal or generations of animals which through observation & experience learn to change behavior is not the same thing as where evolution posits genetic changes and/or alteration of the physical makeup and physiology of a species. Two different things. The former may over a terribly long period of time be part of the latter, for the evolution theorists, but in much shorter periods of time the former changes are not dependent on the latter.
Animal’s can’t change their code by thinking....thats where you run off the rails. It’s how they are wired.....nithing to do with them thinking.
I did read the article, none of the goop you said is in there. You can’t compare animals, mammals to humans in that way.
