"Growing anywhere from 7 to 11 feet long and weighing up to 500 pounds, the Bull Shark has no distinguishing markings. However, a short snout that is wider than it is long, small eyes, an off-white underside, and gray topside can identify it. The first dorsal fin of the Bull Shark is much longer and pointed than the second. As an adult, it possesses no fin markings, but may in some cases have a pale stripe along its flank. Also, the Bull Shark lacks a skin ridge between the two dorsal fins, which most other shark species possess."
