What is a shark cow?

Shark kings belong to the Order of Hexanchiformes, an order different from other sharks with the number of gills. The cow shark has either six or seven gills, while the other sharks have five. Sharks living in mild and tropical areas of the Atlantic, Indian and Pacific Oceans usually inhabit deep waters and have been found up to 6 150 feet (1,874 m), but more often occur at depths between 150 feet (45 m) and 300 meters (90 m).

There are four types of sharks and they are a diverse group. Sharpnose Sevengill, which usually has a maximum length of only about 4.5 feet (1.4 m); Bluntose Sixgill is the largest shark of cows, reaching a mature length of more than 15.5 feet (4.8 m). It belongs to the same family as Bluntos Sixgill is Bigye Sixgill. Broadnos Sevengill is the only kind of cows shark that can be found commonly found in the shallow coastal waters of the oceans that lives, and is most studied of all species. Sharpnose Sevengill and Bluntose Sixgill created an international UnIE to preserve nature red list of endangered species.

Each of the species of shark cows is characterized by one dorsal fins far on the tail end of the shark, as well as anal fins and a thick rounded body. Strong mouths are clear overbite and the upper jaw is filled with a thorn similar to teeth, while the teeth in the lower jaw have a unique comb shape. Cow sharks give birth to live young, with average litter sizes ranging from 22 to 108 pups. Parents come to shallow waters to give birth in the spring and early summer.

In sharp contrast to obedient nature, their name could indicate that sharks of cows are aggressive hunters and prey on other sea animals, octopus, seals and dolphins to other sharks. Seven -gills Broadnoselov ED was observed in packages, displaying methods of cooperative hunting unusual in sharks. Known by their curiosity, they were observed boldly plAccess to the diver. This resulted in a confrontation between people and sevengills, especially those found in the algae forests off the coast of Cape Town in South Africa. It is known that the capturers and predators who attack people in shallow coastal waters and the stomachs of the disseminated cow sharks have been found in human remains.
