Ragged Tooth
This Shark goes by many names.
Sand tiger shark, ragged-tooth shark, gray nurse shark, and others.
It has a menacing appearance.
Despite this, it is gentle around people. And there are zero confirmed human fatalities attributed to it.
The sand tiger shark has three rows of protruding, smooth-edged, sharp-pointed teeth.
These help it to grip its prey.
Including fish, crustaceans, squid and skates.
