The Dorsal Fin is an Item introduced in the Shipwrecked DLC. It is dropped by killed Bottlenose Ballphins and can be used to craft Ballphin Palaces. Unlike Shark Fins, Dorsal Fins are not edible to the player. They can be used as a filler in the Crock Pot, falling under the same category as Twigs.

Placeholder Trivia[]

  • Dorsal Fins were added to the Shipwrecked DLC more than a year after its official completion in the Home Sea Home update, after being tested in a beta branch for several months.
  • While some players can mistake this filler item for a meat food, in actuality it is not, as Bunnymen will not attack the player if it has at least one Dorsal Fin in its inventory.
    • This also applies to mobs, as creatures such as Tiger Sharks or Wildbores will not consume Dorsal Fins if they are on the ground.
