I hope your weekend and Sunday are going well.

I hope you’re having a great Sunday.

The tasseled wobbegong (Eucrossorhinus dasypogon) is a master of camouflage. Its flattened body and fringe of skin flaps blend into coral reefs, helping it ambush prey. This shark is so stealthy, fish often swim right into its mouth.

Caribbean Reef Shark (Carcharhinus perezi)

Identify the Caribbean Reef Shark by its robust body, rounded snout, and plain gray coloration with a white underside. Its first dorsal fin is large and slightly curved. Found near coral reefs in the Caribbean.

I wonder why they call these whale sharks.

Okay.

Great hammerheads have triangular, serrated teeth that angle more sharply near the corners of their mouths. Their upper jaws hold 17 teeth on each side, plus 2–3 in the center, while the lower jaws have 16–17 on each side with 1–3 in the center.

Nah. These don’t have a bard and stinger.

This is in Hawai’i. Swimming with manta rays is one of my favorite things. #marinelife 🐙 🦈 🐠

Good question! The tiger shark’s stripes might look different to sea creatures since their vision often picks up contrast rather than color. The stripes likely help the shark blend into light and shadow patterns underwater, making it harder for prey to spot them.

Tiger Shark (Galeocerdo cuvier)
Identify the Tiger Shark by its stocky body, blunt snout, and vertical tiger-like stripes on a gray body that fades to white underneath. Found in tropical and subtropical coastal waters.
