Bullhead sharks get a silver medal on this list because they don’t look like most other sharks. They’re small and with a mouth built for crushing through animal shells—a far cry from the rows of hundreds of serrated teeth touted by others on this list. According to the American Oceans Campaign, the sharks (also known as horn sharks) are sluggish and sedentary, making them relatable to anyone else who’s eaten a lot of crustaceans in a short amount of time.
