It looks like "white shark" is used for "great white shark" in some places, so I'll accept that, but "hammer shark" doesn't seem to be widely used.

Wonderful work, JimmyJames. It's a shame you can't embed multiple things, because a 5:00 clip of the 'Jaws' theme would be perfect here!

Great quiz! I don't normally bother to take a few minutes to learn a quiz perfectly, but I thought this one was worth learning. As everyone knows, when you're attacked by a shark, the most important thing to do is to identify it so you can show off your intelligence to everyone else in the lifeguard's emergency room...

I'm surprised the nurse shark wasn't include. Also, the frilled shark would've been a good one as the vertebrate with the longest gestation period known to man, at up to 3.5 years.

Screw horror movies. After seeing the goblin shark, real life is much, much more scarier.

So everyone's seen this goblin shark video, right? Because if you thought the photo was terrifying, wait til you see them in action. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eh_HUIJkRzU

Tricky little dusky shark. It's the only one of these I've ever caught, and it's the only one I missed.
