Hammerhead shark

Hammerhead sharks habit in warm waters near the cost. There exist 9 species of this kind of animals; the biggest one can be up to 6 meters. They have grey skin (they become tan with the sun) and white belly, and a characteristic head with lateral protuberances that gives it a hammer shape. Hammerhead sharks swim in schools during the day, but alone at nights, and they eat from crustaceans to squid including other hammerheads and even their own young. They have electro receptors like all sharks but spread among a wider area so they are more effective.
