Bottom-feeding Nurse Sharks have a very limited range, swimming the warm coastal waters off West Africa and South and Central America
The 9-foot sharks are abundant within their range, however, and they happily feed on squid, shrimp, and fish
This sleek Nurse Shark figure details several characteristics unique to the species, including the dual dorsal fins with their clipped shape, the sucker-shaped mouth, and the catfish-like barbells
A sandy-brown colour gives this 5 ½ inch long shark figure a realistic colour, allowing it to blend with the sea bottom
