The great dogfish shark

Tope Sharks
See the largest sharks in the Atlantic basin. Easily recognizable by their slender body and prominent muzzle, they will slip silently into the dark waters.
The cernier fish
The cernier lives on a variety of rocky or sandy bottoms. The juveniles wander around in shoals, the adults are rather solitary. This fish is voracious, it mainly eats good-sized fish, but also adult crustaceans and molluscs. In some countries it is called the wreck fish. Good news, you will be able to find it in a reconstruction of the wreck of the Titanic!
