Spotted wobbegong, Orectolobus maculatus, swimming over sand bottom. It's a carpet shark probably endemic to Australia. Commonly found on coral and rocky reefs, in coastal bays, in estuaries, in seagrass beds, under piers, and on sandy bottoms. Nocturnal feeds on crabs, lobsters, octopuses and fish. Regarded as a pest by lobster fishers. Flesh highly regarded and used on human consumption. There are several reports of unprovoked attacks on divers. This shark is often reluctant to let go once it bites, causing severe lacerations. Australia. Composite image
