Finnigan is a reef shark and spends his days hunting and exploring in coral reefs. Reef sharks tend to be shy and will usually steer clear of humans. These sharks play an important role in coral reef communities, being at the top of the food chain and are sadly in decline as many coral reefs around the world are being diminished due to rising sea temperatures.

Make your own version of this fascinating sea creature with this pattern.
