A hammerhead shark above the sandbank
The shark moves through open water above a rippled sandy seabed. Its broad, flattened head is the feature that distinguishes it from other sharks, while its streamlined body and fins help it travel efficiently through the sea. The simple setting keeps attention on the animal and the patterns formed by the sand below.
Surprising facts about hammerhead sharks
A hammerhead’s widely spaced eyes give it an unusually broad field of view. Special sensory organs across its head can detect faint electrical signals made by living animals, helping the shark investigate prey hidden beneath sand.

- Upper body: commonly gray, olive-gray, or gray-brown
- Underside: pale gray to white
- Eyes: very dark brown or black
- Fins: usually the same muted gray as the upper body
