The annual take of angel shark in 1977 was an estimated 147 kg. [11] By 1985, the annual take of angel shark on the central California coast had increased to more than 454 tonnes or an estimated 90,000 sharks. [11] The population declined dramatically and is now regulated. Angel sharks live very close to shore, resulting in high bycatch rates.
The common blacktip shark (pictured) is nearly identical in appearance to the Australian blacktip shark. Physically, the Australian blacktip shark can only reliably be distinguished from the common blacktip shark by the number of vertebrae (174–182 total, 84–91 before the tail in C. tilstoni, 182–203 total, 94–102 before the tail in C. limbatus).
O. auriculatus was a large lamniform shark, with the largest individuals reaching a body length of 9.5 metres (31 ft). [3] The tooth length of O. auriculatus is relatively large - from 25 to 114 millimetres (0.98 to 4.49 in). [4]
