Leopard Shark, 1996 (Wild Safari Sealife by Safari Ltd.)
My next Shark Week review is another blast from the past, the 1996 Wild Safari leopard shark (Triakis semifasciata). Since the release and retirement of this toy, better leopard sharks have come along by Safari and Papo, but this oldie is still worth taking a look at.

Believe it or not, Australia's oceans aren't filled with dangerous and ferocious sharks! 🦈

Great White sharks swim along the Pacific Coast September through December. That’s why Bay Area surfers often call this season "Sharktober"— an especially fitting time around Halloween for retelling scary tales of close encounters. These sharks starred in the classic thriller Jaws because they’ve been known to attack surfers and swimmers, and chomp surfboards and kayaks. Don’t worry, though. Great Whites rarely enter San Francisco Bay. The most recent sighting was last July, when a boat captain accidentally hooked one in the Bay (and then released it, as required by law).
