These pictures should be used as a guide for identifying the dusky shark or the bronze whaler as they are known in south Africa and Austarlia,Notice that the dorsal is spaced further back away from the pectoral fins compared to the bull sharks and the head has a sharper then the bull also .Notice the pectoral fins are longer and skinnier then the bull shark also.The sandbar shark is also different in that it has a broader dorsal fin that is set further forward on top of the pectoral fins.
We hope this helps those out there that are often confused or don't have the clues to differentiate between very similiar species.
