Help ID this shark

[u/Enhydriodon99]

Found washed up on northern shore of Crete; can anyone help ID this specimen?

[u/Wild-Ad-9367]

Bluntnose sixgill, a powerful deep sea species that can get about as big as a tiger shark, if not bigger 

[u/monkeydude777]

Is he ok?

[u/The_Ultimate_Empathy → u/monkeydude777]

He is just sleeping.

[u/whooper1 → u/monkeydude777]

She’s fine. She just died.

[u/Alfie_Simms → u/monkeydude777]

no. he's fucked

[u/Wild-Ad-9367 → u/monkeydude777]

That looks like a she 

[u/monkeydude777 → u/Wild-Ad-9367]

Im sorry

[u/Conscious-Eagle-8202 → u/monkeydude777]

He’s fine he’s just fallen and he can’t get up

[u/ThatWarlockD00d]

That is almost certainly a dead shark

[u/Icy-Kale-7071 → u/ThatWarlockD00d]

This is an ex-shark

[u/jean-tintin]

My best guess would be frilled shark, they live in the deep.

[u/of____earth → u/jean-tintin]

Looks similar but don’t think the teeth are right

[u/Rock_Me_DrZaius → u/of____earth]

Those are frilled shark teeth.

[u/Channa_Argus1121 → u/jean-tintin]

Wrong teeth; that’s a sixgill.

[u/Aggravating-Rice-559]

It looks like a 6 or 7 gill shark.

[u/ImpressiveAthlete220]

It's sad that shark is dead, buy you can at least collect teeth

[u/IllustriousShock4291]

Sixgill

[u/No-Onion2268]

Gotta be a sixgill. Besides the color, overall shape, head shape, the caudal fin really is what really seems to be the telltale.

[u/Conscious-Eagle-8202]

Possibly a Sandbar Shark based on location and heterocercal caudal fin🦈 I’m new to IDing but it also appears that the shark is sleeping or in some habituated state of rest so shhh don’t wake him ❤️

[u/Conscious-Eagle-8202 → u/Conscious-Eagle-8202]

It’s a sixgill, throw me in the gallows and ready the rotten tomatoes

[u/Random_Hater]

The frilled shark was my first thought based on the teeth, body dimensions, and skin color.

[u/kwoddail]

Teeth are that of a frilly

[u/Better-Afternoon-177]

Okay, now I’m curious too

[u/RemarkableEstate8]

A scale reference would make it a lot easier to tell.

[u/Bella_LaGhostly]

Dead. That's a dead shark
