And then you add the fact that sharks have barely evolved because they've been the perfect silent killer since the dawn of time.

Another fun fact:
Sharks don't make sound. They don't have any organ for the purpose of making sound. That is creepy as all hell.

Do any fish?

[–] gratux@lemmy.blahaj.zone 17 points 1 year ago

Yes, actually. Example: Triglidae

They are bottom-dwelling fish, living down to 200 m (660 ft), although they can be found in much shallower water. Most species are around 30 to 40 cm (12 to 16 in) in length. They have an unusually solid skull, and many species also possess armored plates on their bodies. Another distinctive feature is the presence of a "drumming muscle" that makes sounds by beating against the swim bladder
