Anatomy

The sand tiger shark is a large bulky shark. The mouth of the sand tiger shark extends behind its eyes. Its dorsal fin is almost identical to the first dorsal fin. Their color and its unique spots make the tiger shark very hard to see in the water. They reach a maximum size of around 11 feet, with males being a little smaller, maxing out at around 9.9 feet. Sand tigers usually have 2 babies, with only one of them usually surviving.
These sharks feed on smaller bony fishes.
