Do sharks have tongues?

Do fish and sharks and whales have tongues?

  • Answer:

    All sharks (and bony fish) have tongues, though they aren't much like ours. Shark and fish tongues aren't called tongues, they are called basihyals. Whales do have tongues, and a blue whale's tongue weighs around 2.7 metric tons.
