They are older than trees. The very concept of trees.

    Trees are 385 million years old. Sharks are 200 million years old. Trees still out-date sharks.

    Although... Trees have evolved multiple times in Earth's history... So sharks are certainly older than certain trees. But not older than the whole tree concept thing.
