Port Jackson Shark
Sydney has it's own shark, the Port Jackson Shark, named after the world famous harbour.
It's definitely not the scariest shark around - it doesn't have sharp pointy teeth, its not a big fan of swimming and it's frightened of other sharks. But it's still a shark. Our shark and there are plenty of them in Sydney.
During mating season, in early spring, you can see groups of ten or more of these Port Jackson Sharks all piled up on top of each other. It is quite a sight.
