The Bramble Shark has large, thorn-like denticles.  This shark has been found between the Eastern Atlantic and the North Sea.  This deep water shark has 5 gill slits and eats smaller sharks, fishes and crabs.  There are two closely related species in this Genus, The BRAMBLE and the PRICKLY shark – almost indistinguishable from each other by their jaws alone.

ONCE IN A LIFETIME CATCH!
Recently about 200 of these sharks were caught by accident. NEVER before in the history of shark research, has this many
Bramble Shark (
Echinorhinus brucus
) been captured. They
grow to a length of about ten feet (3 meters) and has some of the most interesting teeth of all modern sharks!
About 7 years ago the same phenomenon occurred with Goblin Sharks. Today that species has all but disappeared from our oceans. This may be the fate of this deep water species. Bramble sharks are migratory, and perhaps they migrated thru the wrong part of the ocean, at the wrong time of the year.
THESE SHARKS ARE NOT CAUGHT FOR
THEIR JAWS.  All shark jaws are obtained from the legal fishing industry in the Philippines and off the coast of India in the Indian Ocean.   These sharks are caught for their hides & meat.  The jaws & teeth are sold as a collectible to recycle 100% of the shark.
We do not support sport fishing, illegal taking of sharks, we don’t even eat in restaurants that serve Shark Fin soup due to the cruel and wasteful nature of shark finning.  We do not catch sharks ourselves.

INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: There is a $93 fee we are required to pay U.S. Fish & Wildlife to inspect the package going outside the United States.  I may be able to discount this off for you depending on the size of jaw, though I still have to pay the fee.  Or combine numerous jaws and I can discount it off.  Yes, I wish I did not have this fee requirement.  But it is the law.
