Weird Shark 3: Hammerheads


Probably, the strangest of all the pelagic sharks are the Hammerheads.  Hammerheads are actually a family of sharks, all sharing the distinctive shovel face shape that resembles, well, a hammer.  The family includes at least 8 distinct animals, some with name as colorful as Hammerhead itself, such as:  Bonnethead and Scoophead!
