Donating to the museum[edit]
In New Leaf[edit]
After the player has donated a Saw Shark to Blathers, it will appear in the section for fish and sea creatures, specifically in the large tank in the north-eastern room.
"Saw sharks got their name from their long head lined with spikelike teeth much like a chain-saw blade. Sensors located below their mouths detect prey as they press their flat bodies against the seabed to search. They will sometimes swing their 'saws' wildly amid a school of fish, catching any that are struck."
In New Horizons[edit]
"As you might expect from the name, the saw shark is a shark with the head that resembles a saw. This unusual appendage is used both to dig potential prey out of the sand and as a weapon against said prey. Given that, it seems like a more appropriate name would have been 'shovel-sword shark,' eh wot?"
