As you can see, the blue shark is a slender type of shark that gets its name from the bright blue colour of its tail and fins. It can be identified by its long, thin body and long cone-shaped snout.

The blue is one of the most common sharks in the ocean and can be found in most parts of the world. They usually swim on the sea surface but can also dive down into the deeper parts of the ocean, up to one thousand six hundred feet.
