Picture of a Lemon Shark

Shark Trivia

Did You Know that the Lemon Shark (Negaprion brevirostris)….

….gets its name from the yellowish color, especially on its underside?

….has two similarly sized dorsal fins unlike most sharks that have a larger first dorsal fin?

….can survive well in captivity so scientists often study them? They are also able to survive in shallow water with very low oxygen levels. They can live around coral reefs, mangroves, river mouths, and bays.
