BIG SKATE JAW (Beringraja binoculata) The largest species of skate (family Rajidae) in the waters off North America. They are found along the Pacific Coast from Alaska to Baja California, typically from the intertidal zone to a depth of 120 m (390 ft), and feed on benthic invertebrates and small fishes. They are unusual among skates in that their egg cases may contain up to seven eggs each. This species is one of the most commercially important skates off California and is sold for food. THESE SHARKS ARE NOT CAUGHT FOR THEIR JAWS. All shark jaws are obtained from the legal fishing industry off the coast of Australia. These sharks are caught for their hides meat. The jaws teeth are sold as a collectible to recycle 100% of the shark. We do not support sport fishing, illegal taking of sharks, we don't even eat in restaurants that serve Shark Fin soup due to the cruel and wasteful nature of shark finning. We do not catch sharks ourselves. Click on our store tag for MANY more shark items! INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: There is a $93 fee we are required to pay U.S. Fish Wildlife to inspect the package going outside the United States. I may be able to discount this off for you depending on the size of jaw, though I still have to pay the fee. Or combine numerous jaws and I can discount it off. Yes, I wish I did not have this fee requirement. But it is the law.
