This Golden Retriever wants a greeting from a curious hammerhead shark! Reggie (the goldie) is too friendly for its own good! Let see what happens!

The Story

One day while going for a lovely beach walk, a couple with their friendly golden retriever stumble upon a surprise. The golden retriever’s name is Reg. Reggie was trotting along, when all of a sudden, a fin pops up out of the water! Wanting to say hello, Reggie moves closer. Noticing the splash of the shark, Reggie’s parents start calling out, trying to make sure Reggie doesn’t go for a swim.

To everyone’s surprise the shark comes right to the edge of the water! The hammerhead shark was just as curious and friendly as Reggie!

Hammerhead Diet

The hammerhead shark prowls in the warm ocean currents, its diet as diverse as the currents it swims in. It is an opportunity-seeking creature. Generally, it eats crustaceans, octopuses, squid, and fish. Its peculiar head form allows it to blend in with the deep, searching patiently for its next meal. Every day introduces fresh tastes to its taste buds; every hunt is a dance of survival in the wide blue sky.
