SHARPNOSE 7-GILL JAW

Sharpnose 7 gill is also known as one-finned, perlon, snouted, and slender sevengill shark. Found in all oceans except the north Atlantic Ocean & Mediterranean Sea.  Found in waters up to 1870' deep but also in deep channels & bays, and prefers rocky bottom habitats. The Sharpnose is different from the other 7-gill sharks due to the lack of black spots along its body.  They grow up to 10' long and 236 pounds, life expectancy: 50 years.  It sometimes hunts in packs, an opportunistic predator that will eat almost anything (shark, dolphin, bony fishes, humans). Its predators include the great white shark.  This is one of the few species of sharks with seven pairs of gill slits while others usually have five.


THESE SHARKS ARE NOT CAUGHT FOR THEIR JAWS. All shark jaws are obtained from the legal fishing industry in the Philippines and off the coast of India in the Indian Ocean. These sharks are caught for their hides & meat. The jaws & t**th are sold as a collectible to recycle 100% of the shark.

We do not support sport fishing, illegal taking of sharks, we don't even eat in restaurants that serve Shark Fin soup due to the cruel and wasteful nature of shark finning. We do not catch sharks ourselves.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: There is a $93 fee we are required to pay U.S. Fish & Wildlife to inspect the package going outside the United States. I may be able to discount this off for you depending on the size of jaw, though I still have to pay the fee. Or combine numerous jaws and I can discount it off. Yes, I wish I did not have this fee requirement. But it is the law.
