Is the answer a lateral line?

    But sharks also detect their prey with sensory receptors that run along their sides. These receptors make up the “lateral line,” an organ similar in function to the ear that can feel pulses or vibrations in the water. A shark might sense the flailing of an animal in distress and swim closer to investigate.
