Cuisine & Edibility
Great Hammerhead Shark
Critically Endangered — consumption strongly discouraged. Fins are historically traded but the species faces severe population decline; eating this fish is ecologically irresponsible.

Species Overview
Great Hammerhead Shark
The great hammerhead is the largest of the nine hammerhead shark species. Its distinctive cephalofoil (hammer-shaped head) houses an array of electroreceptors that allow it to detect stingrays buried beneath the sand.
Rainbow Trout
The rainbow trout is native to cold-water tributaries of the Pacific Ocean in Asia and North America. Widely introduced worldwide, it is prized by anglers for its acrobatic leaps and beautiful coloration.
