The wobbegong is a type of carpet shark which lives in shallow temperate and tropical waters of the western Pacific Ocean and eastern Indian Ocean, mainly around Australia and Indonesia.
These sharks are bottom-dwelling animals with a maximum length of 1,25 meters. They have good camouflage further boosted by small whisker lobes around its jaw, which also act as sensory barbs. Wobbegongs use their camouflage as ambush predators.
