Rostrum
Quite possibly the reason there are no forests in the ocean, sawfish are characterized by a long, narrow nose extension resembling a saw called a rostrum. In humans, the narrow indentation running vertically between the nose and upper lip is called a philtrum. Whilst Rostrum and Philtrum sound very similar, the only connection we could find between them is that they were also the names of two brothers living in Glasgow in the 1950’s who would shake down small business owners for protection money as part of a growing postwar crime epidemic.
