Hammerhead Sharks Have 360° Vision

Hammerhead sharks have a unique head shape called a cephalofoil, which gives them nearly 360-degree vision. This adaptation helps them hunt more effectively in the ocean.

The wide-set eyes allow hammerheads to see above and below them simultaneously, providing a significant advantage when searching for prey.

Additionally, the cephalofoil enhances their ability to detect electrical signals from other animals, making them skilled hunters in their marine environment.
