    Are you reading the same thing I’m reading? Literally every search result describes shark skin as dermal denticles, or sharp tooth-like scales aligned from front to back, “relatively smooth” in one direction, and sandpaper-like in the other.

    Apparently other animals regularly get injured brushing up against them.
