Did you know, that like snakes and lizards, most sharks are ectothermic? This means that, normally, they’re not capable of regulating their own body temperature. However, sharks that live in frigid Arctic waters have adapted an ability called counter-current heat exchange. This method of keeping warm, allows these sharks to survive in even the coldest of the world’s oceans.

Day 7: Porbeagle Shark 🫐🥧
Had a blast with this one! Now I’m craving blueberry pie…
id: A porbeagle shark drawn to look like it’s made of blueberry pie filling. Its fins are made of lattice pie slices while its tail fin is a partially cut pie. It swims between the words “Porbeagle Shark.” end id.

More doodles of my Finding Nemo OC, Yefir! They’re a melanistic porbeagle shark. Selectively mute, they’re rather playful and enjoy pretending to be other sharks’ shadows. When in doubt, a game of kelp keep-away is always fun!
Marlin isn’t so sure about that, though lol
Fun fact, in real life, porbeagle sharks have exhibited signs of play such as chasing each other in a game of keep-away with bits of kelp!

I just wanted to say that I saw a long reblog chain about sharks (can’t find it though, saw it in a YouTube video) and was like “I wish I could send this to Raja” lmao

Funfact: Porbeagles are the most playful out of any shark! Beetles which sharkie are you ?<3
@koshka-in-the-corner @dreamsb0u :3

there are only 5 warm blooded sharks species. they’re all in the family lamnidae, which are also known as mackeral sharks. these sharks are the shortfin mako, the longfin mako, the great white shark, porbeagle shark, and salmon shark. they use a network of blood vessels to keep in the heat that is produced by their muscles. the salmon shark, which has the most endothermic capabilities out of all of them, can regulate their body temperature at 70ºF warmer than the sub-arctic temperatures around them.
great white and shortfin mako sharks ^
longfin maki and porbeagle sharks ^

Starmites and the kinds of sharks I think they'd be. Sometimes explanations are given.
Milady: leopard shark (the ground shark one, not the carpet shark)
Spacepunk: whale shark. Friend shaped.
Ack ack: shortfin mako. They look like they would have the same attitude.
S'up s'up: blue shark. He's blue.
Diggety: coral catshark. Just vibes.
Diva: great white. Great white have diva vibes and vice versa.
Bizarbara: angular roughshark. It looks scared.
All banshees: horn sharks or carpet sharks. I know this is really broad but shhhh. Shotzi specifically is a zebra shark.
Trinkulus: gulper shark. They're kinda ugly, but in a endearing way. (I can't think any shark is ugly they're all perfect okay)
Shak graa: giant guitarfish. OKAY this one is actually part of the rays and skates BUT it's a guitar. The cruelty!
Oragala: megalodon. I don't actually remember why this is it. Probably because it's extinct and oragala is a god? Kinda the same idk.
Mother/father: porbeagal shark. It looks like the guy who was father in the show I was in. @daweirdo-applhead. You but a shark.
Anyway, I'm a nerd.
