I've seen bags of shark teeth for sale and was intrigued. They said they collect them, as sharks constantly lose them. Is that true?
Is the shark tooth trade harming them?
(Wondering whether to buy them for a craft project, as I'd like to avoid plastic)
Sharks have the unique trait where unlike humans, when they lose their teeth, they grow back with ease. So go ahead and use those, since the sharks naturally lost them, and they aren’t using them anymore.
