佛氏虎鯊 (加州虎鯊)

Horn Shark

Heterodontus francisci

簡介

長著一張狗臉的底棲鯊魚。背鰭上還長了刺，看起來不好惹，但其實最愛吃的是海膽。

A bottom-dwelling shark with a face like a dog. Looks tough with its dorsal spikes, but mostly just uses them to crush sea urchins.

產下的卵鞘呈螺旋狀，母鯊會用嘴巴把卵鞘死死卡進礁石縫隙中，防止被其他掠食者吃掉。

Mothers lay spiral-shaped egg cases and use their mouths to wedge them tightly into rock crevices so predators can't pull them out.

尚無潛點紀錄。
