There are 12 living Orders of sharks and rays swimming in our oceans today, and more than 440 known species. Here are some of the wackier ones!

There is a green sawtooth at the Shedd Aquarium. She usually stays still in the back of the big reef tank, but it's totally worth the (sometimes long) wait to see her move. Such an amazing sight!

It's so strange that we never hear about these types of sharks, society is so fixated on the Great White, which true, is a fearsome creature. But a shark that can hyper-extend its jaw? Poisonous skin? That's an incredible force of nature! I would love to hear more about how those sharks feed, mate and just generally live life. Also, not particularly science-y, but that dress is fantastic. I also appreciate strange pieces of the sharks you show as well as the pictures and videos. The devil baby and saw nose add a different and intriguing dimension to the information.

Yep sharks from those seperate Orders last shared a common ancestor during the age of dinosaurs in the Jurassic period (so sharks like those evolved to be apex hyper-predators completely independently) ^ Shark tooth collectors can especially notice this, given how different great white and tiger shark teeth are. Tiger shark teeth closely resemble the relatively blunt and angled blades of a saw blade, while great white teeth are much more elongated and either broad (upper jaw teeth) or slender (lower jaw teeth). Even if both are still very effective and serrated like steak knives

Shark Week was never a great time for me, because I never understood the mania of it. Sharks are just another part of life to a sailor, like any other fish. They are always with us, just take one of those helicopter rides up a coastline and you will see hundreds of them just offshore everyday. For the first time the Brain Scoop has made me love this week, with its interesting facts. Emily did an awesome job on the writing and her pronunciation of all those polysyllables was as much fun to listen to as was the video to watch. I loved it all, and while as a scientist Emily is definitely fantastic and fun to watch with her enthusiasm, I must say I was astounded by that saw. What an awesome planet we live upon. I can't wait to hear and see more.

Love your content, this channel is a dream for lovers of learning and especially science and nature like myself and many there's! I do however have a question, why are Carcharhiniformes called "ground sharks"? When you said they were ground sharks I expected you to say that they were sharks such such as wobbegongs, nurse sharks, angle sharks and epaulette sharks because of their bottom dwelling or "grounded" nature. Blue sharks especially, seem to be just the opposite of that as they are capable of traveling through thousands of miles of open ocean. Keep up the great work!

There are so many specialized and uniquely fascinating species to explore and clearly the Field Museum has no shortage of specimens. I desperately want more content about sharks that showcase their amazing qualities without resorting to sensationalism and outright lies.
