Horn sharks are a species of bullhead sharks that are very solitary. They hunt alone, mostly at night and generally stay away from each other unless it is mating season. They are mostly found in the Pacific Ocean, near the coasts of California and Monterey Bay.
During the mating season, males will chase females around the ocean floor until the female is ready. After 30 to 45 minutes of copulation, the male leaves and the female starts spinning with her snout in the sand for about 30 more minutes.
After a month or so, the female lays a maximum of 24 eggs. These eggs are extremely strange looking and one of the main reasons is protection.
