Easily recognizable by the black tips of its fins, the blacktip reef shark is one of the most common sharks found in coral reefs. Agile and fast, it thrives primarily in the shallow waters of tropical lagoons.
Surprisingly, although it measures an average of 1.5 to 2 meters, this shark remains harmless to humans and feeds mainly on small fish, crustaceans, and cephalopods. Curious but cautious, it is often observed by divers, making it one of the most well-known sharks. Like many marine species, it is now threatened by overfishing and the degradation of coral reefs.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the blacktip reef shark: streamlined silhouette, fins marked with black and realistic posture. An ideal model to enrich a collection of marine animals, invent stories in the lagoons or raise children's awareness of the richness and fragility of the oceans' biodiversity.
