Customer photo review of The Hammerhead Plush

This plush is too adorable for words. He's so soft and snuggly. He likes to ''swim' on my bed. He's right at home there. I've named him Hammy after the Hammerhead Shark I'm following. He's wonderful quality and so soft. What a great plush!

Not a lot of items in the shape of a hammerhead shark but I at least have this one. Very soft and squishy.

It's sooo soft! It's little mouth is cute!

The Hammerhead Plush

We gifted this to my son for his birthday. He was so excited to have a cute stuffed animal, but then I showed him that it was linked to a real animal! He asks to see where his shark is often. It is also very soft.

The Hammerhead Plush

Had to get this for my ocean-obsessed 6 year old who already has a growing collection of Fahlo plushies. As with the previous purchases, it is beautifully made with gorgeously soft material, and the added bonus of tracking a hammerhead shark.

The Hammerhead Plush

I love hammerheads! This plush is sitting on top of my dresser(so my dog can’t eat it!). It brings me such joy every time I look at it! Great colors, soft, well made. Thanks!

The Hammerhead Plush

My daughter has loved sharks especially hammer head sharks since she was small she is now almost 9 and still has the same love for them! I ordered the hammer head plush as an early birthday present and she was over the moon and has taken him everywhere we go sleeps with it every night and absolutely loves that she can track him. So much that I had to order her a hammer head bracelet she checked on them every day a dozen times a day 😁 definitely worth it! High quality plush fast shipping great product for a great cause bracelets are made with quality beads heavy duty strong n are absolutely beautiful

The Hammerhead Plush

Very cute! Good craftmanship as always. And, buying it helps the animals, fish, turtles, etc. Thanks so much!

The Hammerhead Plush

I 💕 the hammerhead shark plushie because it's soft and cuddly. The name is very funny 😄, I got a chuckle out of it. I actually saw some hammerhead 🦈 at the New England Aquarium back in the 80's and again when I went to Sea World Orlando in 1997.

The Hammerhead Plush

Brought one for myself and the other for a great-nephew

The Hammerhead Plush

It's even cuter in person and is the best thing to hold when I'm sleeping. Plus it's a hammerhead so that makes it a 10/10 automatically.

The Hammerhead Plush

My plush came quickly and was in great condition. I absolutely love it!!! Thank you!

The Hammerhead Plush

It’s larger than I thought and super soft! I absolutely adore him and can’t wait to get one next year.

Common Questions
common question image

Why are sharks tracked?

“In order to conserve and manage sharks, researchers use tags to track them in their natural habitat and study their movement patterns and behavior. This tagging allows researchers to better understand the species’ life history, social behavior, reproduction and much more, including how often the animals may interact with fisheries. These fields are all very important for advancing the conservation and management of sharks. For example, Saving the Blue recently tagged a great hammerhead in Andros. Within the Bahamas, this shark was protected as part of the national Shark Sanctuary. When the shark left the Bahamas and swam to the United States, however, it was subject to fishing pressure as regulations permit limited harvest in federal waters. By revealing where sharks move and the routes they travel, scientists can understand how best to influence management and ultimately, protect them. This protection is only possible with the use of tags, which reveal the secrets of these fascinating creatures!” - Saving the Blue

How are sharks tracked?

We use a combination of satellite and acoustic electronic devices. Satellite tags (SPOT or PSAT) are typically used to monitor migration patterns both horizontally and vertically as they can provide locations of the sharks during tracks and depth / temperature information at 5-minute intervals throughout their deployment. Acoustic tracking tags are usually deployed to examine habitat use at finer scales, determining the role of various biological factors (e.g. biotic / abiotic) on how sharks use particular areas.” - Saving the Blue

Does tracking harm the sharks?

“Our team is very careful with how we handle and place tags on sharks. Most satellite devices are placed next to or through the dorsal fin. There are no nerve endings in the fins and although we are unable to ask a shark if it feels us making a hole to place a tag, they do not react. The tags are temporary with materials that break down over time, so eventually there are no tag remnants on the shark. Acoustic tags are typically implanted in the body cavity and can last up to 10-years, many recent studies that our scientific team have been involved with have tracked some individuals up to 6-years with tags implanted showing no adverse effects.” - Saving the Blue

Are hammerhead sharks endangered?

Great, scalloped, and smooth hammerheads are listed as critically endangered by the IUCN Red List. Their greatest threat is bycatch by global fisheries—in other words, they are accidentally caught during commercial fishing meant for other species. Since these apex predators serve a vital role in keeping ocean ecosystems stable and healthy, their conservation and restoration is incredibly important!

Why do hammerhead sharks look like that?

Unlike their more sleek-headed cousins, hammerheads’ mallet-shaped noggins (while a little cumbersome) serve a very specific purpose. In true shark fashion, it has everything to do with hunting prey. Their unique head shape in part gives these sharks binocular vision; with eyes on either end, their field of vision is quite broad and allows them to view a great deal of their surroundings at once. 

Additionally, that big head has a lot of extra space inside to store specialized sensory organs that detect electrical fields produced by other marine life. Since hammerheads’ favorite meal—stingrays—tend to hide under the sand, this is especially helpful. Once they find a ray, they use their wide heads to pin them to the ocean floor.

How do I wash my hammerhead plush?

Wipe with damp sponge or cloth, using warm water and mild soap. Once dry, brush to restore the plush and proceed with snuggling.
