Safari Ltd. Hammerhead Shark #210702 Review:

This hammerhead figure is one of three hammerhead shark figures currently offered by Safari Ltd, and is perfect for those looking for a longer option.

The light-colored grey body is in a flat grey matte finish. The white underbelly adds a touch of contrast.

Despite its impressive length, the hammerhead on this figure measures only 1.75 inches wide, giving it a more slender appearance. The tail of the body has a slight curve, adding to the realistic look and feel of the figure. The upper back fin is more rounded than angular - not as sharp / crisp as other models.

Hammerhead Shark Information:

Hammerhead sharks are a truly fascinating and unique species of shark, easily recognizable by their distinctive hammer-shaped heads that not only give them a striking appearance but also serve several important functions. The hammerhead's head structure provides a wider visual range than most other sharks, making it easier for them to detect prey. With eyes set far apart on either end of the hammer, these sharks are able to scan a greater area more quickly, giving them a significant advantage in the hunt for food.

Unlike many other shark species, hammerhead sharks tend to be bottom feeders due to their unusually small mouths. They use their uniquely shaped head to pin down prey on the ocean floor. Hammerheads feed on a variety of marine animals such as fish, squid, crustaceans, and even other sharks, and are also known to be cannibalistic, consuming members of their own species when necessary.

Despite their fearsome reputation, hammerhead sharks are not considered a significant threat to humans. Most encounters with humans are due to incidental contact rather than intentional attacks. If you're looking for a unique hammerhead shark figure, Safari Ltd offers three options, with the smaller one featuring a tan paint coloring on the back, an off-white underbelly, and unique ridges on the back edge of the back fin, with an open mouth and a single row of teeth on the bottom jaw..
