Questions
Quick answers before visitors choose a product, service, or next step.
Lemon sharks are coastal sharks with yellow-brown skin. They live in warm, shallow water and eat fish, rays, and crabs.
They help keep reef food webs in balance, and their homes face fishing, lost seagrass, and heavy coastal growth.
They live in the western Atlantic, Gulf of Mexico, and parts of the eastern Pacific, often near mangroves and flats.
