Hammerhead sharks use their wide heads to improve vision, allowing them to see above and below at the same time.
There are nine species of hammerhead sharks, with the great hammerhead being the largest.
Hammerheads can grow up to 20 feet long and weigh over 1,000 pounds, depending on the species.
Their unique head shape, called a cephalofoil, helps them detect prey using special sensory organs.
Hammerhead sharks are found in warm oceans worldwide, often near coastlines and continental shelves.
They are known for their social behavior, sometimes forming schools of up to 100 individuals.
Hammerheads primarily feed on fish, squid, and stingrays, using their heads to pin prey to the ocean floor.
Hammerhead sharks give birth to live pups, with litters ranging from 6 to 50, depending on the species.
