do you know any really cool things about hammerhead or bonnet head sharks? they’re some of my favorites. thanks!

Bonnethead Shark or Sphyrna tiburo

My favorite fact about these sharks is that THEY'RE OMNIVORES! This is the first shark that is an active hunter that has been found to consume plants! (Filter feeders like whale sharks also eat plant matter because filter feeding isn't a selective process) Up to 60% of this shark's diet is sea grass!

There are about 10 recognized species of hammerhead sharks (Sphyrnidae family) and the bonnethead shark is the smallest, they grow up to 1.2 m (4 ft). They're also known as shovelhead sharks because of their unique head shape!

Sharks: mindless killers? 🦈

Think again! Sharks are more than their scary reputation and play important roles in sanctuary habitats from coral reefs to the deep seas. As predators, sharks help keep food webs in balance.

Your National Marine Sanctuary System is home to a variety of amazing sharks. Learn more about them in the links below.

Shark Talk: Sunny Shark Talks with Nicole Nudibranch

My first guest is a colorful, beautiful gill. You don't want to wear plaid when you are next to her. A creature of great depth, (actually all depths.) Please welcome Nichole Nudibranch.

Sunny Shark: It is fin-teresting that you are called a nudibranch because your gills are visible for all to sea.

Nicole: Gill-ty! We find it bene-fish-ial to have our gills on our back.

Sunny: They are quite blue-tiful.

Sunny Shark: I understand nudibranches are unof-fishally called sea slugs.

Nicole: Yes. We sea slugs like to shell-abrate. You know, get some shark-oal and a gill and have a real slugfest.

Sunny: Thank you, Nicole. What a fin-tastic guest.!
