AS OF 6/20/22 THESE ARE BECOMING MORE RARE, DUE TO PROTECTED STATUS WE CANNOT GET THESE ANYMORE.  PRICES REFLECT THIS. LONGFIN AND SHORTFIN MAKOS ARE DECLARED ENDANGERED.  THIS MEANS WE CAN NO LONGER IMPORT THEM.  WHEN THEY'RE GONE, THEY'RE GONE.
MAKO (LONGFIN) SHARK JAW

(Isurus paucus)

A distinction was never made between shortfin and longfin until 1966; these are less common than the shortfin mako; how to tell the difference between shortfin & longfin mako jaws?  Easiest ID is that there is NO GAP between the 3rd & 4th upper teeth counting from the center.

MVC-113S.jpg (38119 bytes)

If this doesn't look like the jaws in the Aliens movie with Sigourney Weaver...Geez, I scared MYSELF when I saw the photo I just took.  ALL the rows of teeth are active like fish hooks to hold ANYTHING.  What a great jaw for anyone that's into sharks!
