SAFARI LTD Bamboo Shark Figure From 3 Years

Bamboo Sharks live in shallow, rocky areas, and do not have to keep moving to force water through their gills to breathe like most shark species. They lazily search the seafloor for food, which includes fish and invertebrates. These sharks do well in captivity and are often found in aquariums. Bamboo Sharks are a small family of cartilaginous fish found in the Indo-Pacific Ocean. They don’t grow longer than four feet in length, and have long, thin bodies with whisker-like barbels near their mouths. Feature: - Scientific Name: Family Hemiscylliidae - Characteristics: This accurate, detailed Bamboo Shark features the long, cylinder-shaped body the family is known for, with small barbels on its face and large spiracles (breathing holes) underneath the eyes. Its distinctive bars mark the figure as a juvenile, or young shark. - The Bamboo Shark is part of the Wild Safari® Sea Life collection. Specifications: - Dimensions: 13.3 L x 4.4 W x 2.9 H - Dimensions: 5.24 L x 1.73 W x 1.14 H
