No, hammerhead sharks are not warm-blooded; they are ectothermic, meaning their body temperature is primarily regulated by the surrounding water. However, some species of hammerheads can maintain a slightly elevated body temperature in certain muscles, which helps them be more efficient hunters in cooler waters. This adaptation is not the same as being truly warm-blooded like mammals.
