The document describes the hammerhead shark. It is 13-20 feet long, weighs 500-1,000 pounds, and can be found in open ocean and near shore zones. It propels itself using its tail and steers with its fins. Its diet consists of fish, squid, octopi, and occasionally stingrays, and its predators include killer whales, tiger sharks, and great whites. Its large head allows it to ram stingrays and gives it wide vision from its eyes on either side, and it is the largest known shark species. Sightings are most common when diving in temperate climates.
