yeah man we can tell
Image Description: [A photo of a slim, small, grey shark with a black tipped snout. It looks shocked, but that's just how its eyes look. The caption, from Wikipedia, reads "The blacknose shark is not known to pose a danger to humans". /End ID.]
Blacknose Shark, which are not known to pose a danger to humans (Carcharhinus acronotus)

Image Description: [A white-spotted, blue plush shark. A light blue plush shark. Another blue plush shark. A light blue plush shark with darker, marbled fins. /End ID.]
Plushies (Order Stuffiformes)
in my jammies with mama
Pyjama Sharks (Poroderma africanum)
Image Description: ["Do sharks play the harmonica like this", a photo of a shark, edited with a harmonica in its mouth. "Or like this?", a photo of a shark, edited with a harmonica pressed against its gills. /End ID.]
Great White Shark (Carcharodon carcharias)
ignoring the fact that a harmonica would not make sound underwater, a shark would play the harmonica like the second image, since water exits out of a shark's gills and enters through its mouth. they cannot breath out through their mouths.

Image Description: [1. A gif of a grey, slim shark swimming and looking around, close to the camera. 2. A gif of those same species of sharks, now swimming gracefully towards the camera.]
Blacktip Reef Sharks (Carcharhinus melanopterus)
you know how it is
Image Description: [1. A video of two zebra sharks (angular, thick-bodied, yellow, and spotted), one biting the other's pectoral fin lightly. 2. A tweet from @/nexta_tv: "Aquarium visitors were startled to see a leopard shark* trying to bite off another shark's fin Staff explained it wasn't aggression but normal... flirting -- this is how sharks show interest in each other." /End ID.]
that shark on the left is basically snuggling up against the one on the right and whispering sweet nothings into her ear. good for them!
Zebra Sharks / *Leopard Sharks in some areas (Stegostoma tigrinum).
they're called zebra sharks because they look like THIS when they're babies:
i love them so much. they look so goofy and they're so friendly
i'm sure marine biologists are gonna have a much more fun time in a few million years when all the Carcharhinus species diversify
i don't knowwwwww
i don't knowwww (Carcharhinus sp.)
identifying sea stars: well this one's obviously P. ochraceus, it's massive, bright orange star in oregon
identifying sharks: IF YOU LOOK REALLY REALLY CLOSELY AT THIS BLURRY PHOTO THIS SHARK ACTUALLY HAS A SLIGHT RIDGE BETWEEN ITS TWO DORSAL FINS. MEANING IT COULD BE THESE 4 TYPES OF SHARKS
doing homework currently, but after that i will be revamping this blog just a little bit, adding more tags (for searching purposes) and uhhhhhh yeah asks and stuff are open so this is prime time to send in any sharks or shark questions!

Image ID: [A photo of a tiger shark (broad, flat snout, sharp fins, relatively slender body), isolated on a white background with the word "yippee" written multiple times around it, filling the whole space around the shark. /End ID.]
Tiger Shark (Galeocerdo cuvier)
GUYS NEW SHARK JUST DROPPED
Well, technically it's not new : it's a nurse shark. What's new, however, is that it's the first xanthic (imagine albinism but in yellow) nurse shark ever found !! Not only it's not common AT ALL to find fishes with xanthism (it's the first cartilagenous fish ever recorded with this type of genetic "anomally"), but if it's there and still existing as an adult, it means the species is chill-ish with other predators (it probably would have been eaten by then). Its eyes are white so it can also be a form of albinism, in addition to xanthism !!!!!
And most of all : ITS SO CUTE !! AND IT'S SUCH A COOL FIND !!
Please if a marine biologist or someone with more info can interact with this post to feed me some more info or correct me on wrong infos i'e given I'd love it !
(Also if you have pics of animals with xanthism, it's also very appreciated!!)
Image ID: [A nurse shark (broad, flat snout, small eyes, pretty flat head, and barbels ("whiskers") near its mouth) being carefully pulled up from the water by a sport fisher. The nurse shark is, rather than its usual warm grey, completely golden orange. /End ID.]
Nurse shark (Ginglymostoma cirratum)
This is the first recorded xanthic nurse shark! Xanthism (Xanthochromism) is a lack of red pigments, replaced by yellows instead (Wikipedia).
Multiple piebald nurse sharks have also been recorded! Piebaldism is a lack of pigmentation in patches on the body (Wikipedia).

and here is what nurse sharks are usually colored like!

Thoughts on cookie cutter sharks,, :3
GOOBERS !!!
cookie cutter sharks (named super adequately) bite almost perfectly round chunks off of their prey to feed on they also recycle their teeth, shedding them a full row at a time and then eating them to reuse the calcium! neat, isn't it :D
their bites are kinda scary to look at but goodness gracious they are so precious
and while looking them up, i learned an extra fact that i did not know: they glow!!
reminder not to demonize these sharks for their bites! they're just hungry, and them biting other things is part of nature!
references: wikipedia https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/marine-science/articles/10.3389/fmars.2021.627045/full
thanks so much for your ask!!
reblogging with these because i love your facts!!
thank you so much!!
little fin (hehe) fact about me!
i have 2 shark books, one of which is an ID/encyclopedia of nearly EVERY shark species discovered up until 2019!!
i'm so excited to get to bust it out for this blog because i just got it a few months ago!! EEK!! X3

somehow i didn't see the plane in that reblog at first and i thought you were identifying the flying shark as an a350
I actually thought about identifying the shark instead just to be funny, but I'm not as good at those.
@identifying-sharks or @identifying-sharks-in-posts, You got this one?
💬 14 🔁 852 ❤️ 2514 · Airbus A350
i gotcha!! 💙
Hi! I love your blog, your posts seem really thoughtful and I'm glad you're educating people about our fantastic sharks! May I ask what you think of Pyjama Sharks? They have been my favourite shark since childhood, and I love them very much
thank you so much, that means a lot to me!
as for the pyjama sharks, i absolutely love them!
Pyjama shark, also known as striped catshark (Poroderma africanum) is named after its stripes that run along its body, making it look like it's wearing pyjamas :]
Fun fact: They curl into little balls when they feel threatened!
(it's still kinda cute, even if they are scared)
They live off the coast of South Africa, and its favorite food is squid :]
In short, I love them and they are so baby <3
Thank you so much for the ask!
