Underwater Curiosities: Sawshark

Sawshark swimming.

Dun dun. Dun dun. Dun dun dun dun dun dun dun dun.

This is so much worse than a Great White lurking on the beaches of Amity Island. Sawsharks are most obviously distinguished from other sharks by the row of teeth sticking out on either end of its long snout, which it uses to blade its victims.

Observe:

Sawshark teeth.

Muahahahhaaa.

Sawshark on Wikipedia

Sorry to tell you guys but you have 2 pictures here of sawfish, not sawsharks. Check your own link to Wikipedia on Sawsharks and you’ll find the following:
“Although they are similar in appearance, sawsharks are distinct from sawfish. Sawfish have a much larger maximum size, lack barbels, have evenly sized rather than alternating sawteeth, and have gill slits on their undersurface rather than on the side of the head.”
Just thought someone should let you guys know. :)
cheers,
Fran.
