Caution, two species of sharks are called “grey sharks”: Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos but also Carcharhinus plumbeus. For this reason, it is preferable to specify “Grey reef shark” for Carcharhinus amblyrhynchos. The Gray Reef Shark has a moderately slender body and a long, broad, blunt snout. The eyes are almost circular.
