    Awesome, Scott. Don't forget to identify your photos. From the tags I could see you did know the name of the species, and as it turns out, its the very first photo of this specie on the site, which is awesome. I'd rather have you take that honour than me :)

    By all means, its entirely optional.     Posted 12 years ago

The Lemon shark

The lemon shark, ''Negaprion brevirostris'', is a shark in the family Carcharhinidae, can grow to 10 feet long. It is known as the lemon shark because light interacting at certain depths with the local seawater can give this shark a tanned and yellow, pitted appearance, much like the surface of a lemon.
