“…acutus tended towards W ∞ but grew very little in mass at older ages. According to this study, growth gain of females was greater than that of males, confirming the sexual dimorphism for this species (Capapé et al , ; Ba et al , ). The variation of asymptotic mass between males and females might be related to the sex‐specific preferences in the food‐searching sites.…”

“…This study has provided estimates of age and growth for R . acutus , a coastal shark species, which is the most landed shark species along the Senegalese coast and easily accessible to small‐scale fisheries (Capapé et al , ; Ba et al , ). This is the first comprehensive study of age and growth for age estimation in this species in West African waters.…”
