*The shark hunter outfit could be crafted after a hammerhead shark bone and [[Bull sharks|bull shark]] skin had been acquired.

*While "hammerhead shark bone" is one of the resources that can be gained from hunting great whites in-game, sharks do not actually possess traditional bones. Rather their skeletons are made of a substance called cartilage, which is lighter and more flexible.
*The "hammerhead shark bones" are required materials for crafting two items: the [[pistol]] ammo pouch II and the shark hunter outfit. Two are needed for the pouch while one bone and one pelt of [[Bull sharks|bull shark]] skin is needed for the outfit.
