6 Bull shark jaw
By Shiza
“The Bull Sharks' name comes from the shark’s stocky (strong) shape and because you cannot tell what it is going to do next.
It’s mainly found in coastal waters of warm oceans, rivers and lakes. They have been found up to 150m in depth but do not usually swim lower than 30 metres deep!
Did you know that they headbutt their prey using the front edges of the jaw?
