I would say that the "non-classic looking" sharks are underrated! Species like angelsharks, wobbegongs, catsharks, lanternsharks and many more! :)

Today is International Angel Shark Day!
With their flattened bodies and bottom-dwelling lifestyle, angelsharks are among the most distinctive shark groups, yet more than half of the known species are threatened with extinction.

Angelsharks are among the most distinctive sharks in the ocean. With flattened bodies, exceptional camouflage, and lightning-fast ambush attacks, they spend much of their lives partially buried in sand or mud waiting for unsuspecting prey.

Angelsharks are an endangered species that can’t be caught in Brazil, but they can be imported. We identified tenders totaling tons of “peixe anjo,” a common name for angelshark.

Fascinating to join a #CSIoftheSea with the Cetacean Strandings Investigation Programme team on two Angelsharks that were found on a North Wales beach in 2023.
🔎 Samples from the sharks will provide vital data on health, diet, reproductive patterns, and connectivity across the East Atlantic.

We had 3 sightings of Angelsharks in 2024 and 2025 on our underwater cameras in Cardigan Bay. These were in the IUCN Cardigan-Caernarfon Bay Important Shark and Ray Area (ISRA).
