    Isn’t shark skin rough because it’s basically covered in tiny teeth?

      Huh, TIL. On reading about them, shark denticles primarily consist of dentin. Denticles are as close to teeth as baleen are to hair, I suppose.

      I guess we could dig around and find more surprisingly logical answers to OPs question.

      (Still, a shark or a whale is a decent choice.)
