Every shark has tiny sensors at the tip of its snout to help it find food like a metal detector finding treasure.

Sharks have teeth all over their body. Their skin has really tiny spikes, like a prickle bush.

A shark’s teeth are in rows like a roller coaster ride. If a shark looses one of its teeth, one will grow back right away and move forward to take the place of the old one. Just like when a person gets off a roller coaster, a new person will take their place for the next ride.
