Lemon Sharks!

-Lemon sharks are often recognized by their two equally-sized dorsal fins.

-Often seen as very social animals.

-Their snout is blunt and shorter than the width of the mouth.

-They have no mid-dorsal ridge.

-As adults, they are about 8 to 10 feet long.

-They are found in subtropical shallow water to depths of 300 feet.

-They live around coral reefs, mangroves, enclosed bays, sounds and river mouths.
(However, they don't like freshwater all that much) 

-Females and males reach sexual maturity at 12-13 years of age.

-Pups are born around 50-60 centimeters.

- Larger sharks may prey on pups and juvenile Lemon Sharks, but when they grow older, those predators seem to back off!

- Lemon Sharks are prone to many parasites, which include copepods.

- The first name for the Lemon Shark was Hypoprion brevirostris, but now it's Negaprion brevirostris
