Very fearful fish, it tends to don't move to take advantage of its camouflage then flees once spotted.
It's a territorial fish, you can find a male surrounded by several females.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
Some sharks can stay motionless on the sand (white tips reef sharks, nurse sharks, etc.).
These sharks don't have to swim to bring oxygen to their gills like other sharks (grey, hammerheads tc.)
The kakihona sushi (sushi wrapped in persimmon leaves) are really the best!
To eat them, you have to go to Nara!
