“The leopard shark or zebra shark (Stegostoma tigrinum) is a large, slow-moving carpet shark commonly known as the zebra shark, found throughout the tropical Indo-Pacific region. It is easily recognised by its long body, prominent ridges and spotted leopard-like body. Zebra sharks typically inhabit shallow waters, often between 5m and 30m deep but they have been recorded at depths of up to around 60-70m. Their relatively limited depth range reflects their preference to warm, coastal reef environments where they feed on mollusks, crustaceans and small fish.”
