Sand Tiger

( Wadious Eatious Yourious Assious)

Commonly Known as Sand Tiger

Yet another one of those maneaters, though this species may be a little more dangerous
than the other maneater species of shark. Since the Sand Tiger call the shoreline along
the beaches their territory they can tend to pose some problems not only wadefishermen but
also surfers and the occasional beach goer... The good news is any, is they are not found
in Texas waters to any degree. The bad news is when they are found in these water they can
reach upwards of 10 feet in length and 300 or so pounds..

Deit consist of mainly small fish and feeding habit is they are mostly nocturnal. At
one time called the sand tiger, was later renamed because of their tendecy to prowl the
surf. The other good news for fishermen is their are edible, so what is good for the goose
is good for the gander..

Distinctive marking is the sloping forehead, two equal size dorsal fins, and grayish in
color with darker coloration on the snout and near the dorsal..

State Records: none

World Record: 340 pounds
