Habitat

Untitled Slide

The body shape of the shark is very narrow and slim so its much more agile than others and gives it an advantage when hunting for food.

the sharks skin color is a light or dark shade of grey which isn't really a good color for camouflage but the hammerhead doesn't really rely on hiding to catch its prey
