What does the shark say? Click, click, click

What does the shark say? "For me, coming from the field of fish bioacoustics, I didn't expect sharks to make sounds at all," Nieder said. The researchers noticed that whenever a shark was held, it would start clicking – possibly, Nieder said, the sound of the sharks' teeth snapping together. "No one had really heard a shark making sounds before," Nieder said. "I hope it will incite curiosity in people about sharks and sound — things that they hadn't considered before — and maybe prompt people to listen to sharks in the wild," Nieder said.
