Blunt-nosed six-gilled sharks average 15 to 16 feet long and have a gray to olive-brown complexion.

Sharks generally live in the deep waters of the continental shelf, reaching depths between 656 and 8,200 feet (200 to 2,500 m).

Very little is known about this species, but it is believed to be a descendant of prehistoric sharks that roamed the seas even before the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

According to the Florida Museum’s Shark File Database, the blunt nose does not pose a threat to humans with a single provoked attack recorded since 1500.

Researchers are therefore more interested in the appearance of the shark from a strictly scientific point of view.
