A shark's skin is made up of thousands of armor-like scales, known as denticles. Their shape and alignment reduce drag, stop algal attachment and can even kill prey. But now humans are using that same ...
A shark's bite may kill prey, but it's the teeth covering its body that make the fish such a good hunter, new research suggests. Sharks are covered in flexible scales—nearly invisible to the human eye ...
Scientists recently made news by using fossil shark scales to reconstruct shark communities from millions of years ago. At the same time, an international team of researchers led by UC Santa Barbara ...

The population of reef sharks has declined nearly three-fold for nearly 7,000 years, due in large part to human exploitation, a new study has revealed. The research compared the abundance and variety ...
Laboratory experiments suggest the tooth-like scales of the puffadder shyshark can be degraded by acidifying oceans Graeme Kruger / flickr (CC BY-NC-SA 2.0) Shark skin is seriously tough. Blanketing ...
