Cownose Ray

Cownose Ray

The cownose ray is widely distributed across the Indo-Pacific region. It inhabits shallow coastal waters, coral reefs, estuaries, and lagoons.

Sand Tiger Shark

The sand tiger shark is a large coastal shark that can grow up to 3 meters in length. It has a robust body and distinctive protruding teeth. Primarily nocturnal, it preys on bony fish, squid, and crustaceans. This species is ovoviviparous, meaning embryos develop inside eggs that hatch within the mother’s body. Due to overexploitation, it is now considered a protected species.

It spends most of its life in the sea and is primarily herbivorous, feeding on seagrasses and marine algae.
