Simple Shark Outline With Gill Slits and Fins

A single shark swims toward the left in a clean side view, drawn with thick, bold outlines and no background at all. The pointed snout has a small round eye and a tiny nostril, and the mouth is a short curved line under the nose. Five curved gill slits sit just behind the head. You can see the tall triangular dorsal fin on top, a pectoral fin angled down below, smaller fins near the back, and a big forked tail on the right. The open shapes and wide spaces are easy for small hands to color in. Try shading the top of the body a darker gray or blue and leaving the belly lighter, then talk about how real sharks are often colored this way. This free printable also works well for labeling the fins during an ocean unit.
