Sharks are cartilaginous fish. The term "cartilaginous fish" means that the structure of the animal's body is formed of cartilage, instead of bone. A shark does not have one bone in it's body. It's skeleton is made up of cartilage. Cartilage is a tough material, like the material that shaped your ear.

A shark has no bones! It is made entirely out of cartilage, a flexible bone! How amazing is that?!

The skeleton of a shark is not made of bones but instead it is made of cartilage. So sharks have zero bones because of this.
