We have many different shark species at our centre; each one of them are different from the other.
Different shark species
Bamboo shark
The bamboo shark is a bottom-dweller. You can often find it hiding between the corals.
Blacktip reef shark
Make sure to follow our blacktip reef sharks in the tank – you will notice that they are continuously moving. They have to keep moving so that they can breathe.
Small-spotted catshark
The small-spotted catshark is the most common shark species in Europe, and females lay about 18-30 egg cases per year. We have also had small-spotted catshark pups born at SEA LIFE.
Pyjama shark
The name of the pyjama sharks comes from their striped coloration, which resembles a striped pyjama suit. These amusing-looking fellows often rest during the day and start swimming only at dusk, as they are nocturnal.
Nursehound
Have you already met the nursehound named Mörssäri that lives with our rays? You can recognize Mörssäri by the fact that it is the largest shark in the bay of rays.
