Description
Lemon Sharks as well as most other Sharks of the warm Atlantic waters are sometimes host to Remoras. Sharks, Rays, Turtles, Dolphins, and Whales all share a symbiotic relationship with these strangly adapted fish. Remoras possess a suction cup like adaptation they use to attach themselves to a host and receive a free ride while they feed on the parasitic matter, and dead skin of the host. Both the shark and the remora benefit from this relationship. Photographed in the Western Bahamas.
