    BLUNTNOSE SIX GILL COW SHARK
    Highly unusual tooth formation.
    The bluntnose sixgill shark, often simply called the
    cow shark
    , is the largest hexanchoid shark, growing to more than 5.4 m. (18 feet) long.
    Many of its relatives are extinct.  The living species that are closest genetically include the dogfish, the
    Greenland shark
    , as well as other six- and sevengilled sharks. There are more closely related relatives in the fossil record than living species. Some of the shark's relatives date back to 200 million years ago.
    Although sluggish in nature, the bluntnose sixgill shark is capable of attaining high speeds for chasing and catching its prey. Because of the bluntnose sixgill shark's large and diverse range they have a wide variety of prey items. Their diet consists of a variety of mollusks, crustaceans, Agnathans (which is a family consisting of hagfish), and
    sea lampreys
    . They also dine on Cape anchovies, Pacific salmon, various species of hake.
    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 & teeth 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 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.
