Description
Dusky smooth-hound (Mustelus canis) is a bottom-dwelling species of houndshark found on the North, Central, and South American coasts of the Atlantic. Interestingly, it can change color to camouflage itself, but represents no danger to humans since it has blunt teeth. Commercial harvesting of this shark along US coastlines has been increasing, and it is often used as a lab animal for biological experiments.
