An original book by Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium, Amazing Sharks A 3D picture book about shark skin! is now available for purchase!

Amazing Sharks A 3D picture book about shark skin! was created by studying sharks at the Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium.

At first glance shark skin looks very smooth, but it can feel rough depending on which way you stroke it. The roughness is because of the tiny scales!

This original book by Okinawa Churaumi Aquarium contains many amazing facts about shark skin!

If you look at the enlarged photos of shark scales with the red & blue 3D glasses that come with this booklet, it looks like the scales are popping out of the page. Enjoy looking at the variety of shapes and sizes of the scales in different species of shark. (with English translations)
