What the hell is that? ( PIC )
 

A species of shark rarely seen alive because its natural habitat is 2,000 ft or more under the sea was captured on film by staff at a Japanese marine park this week. The Awashima Marine Park in Shizuoka, south of Tokyo, was alerted by a fisherman at a nearby port on Sunday that he had spotted an odd-looking eel-like creature with a mouthful of needle-sharp teeth. Marine park staff caught the 5 ft long creature, which they identified as a female frilled shark, sometimes referred to as a "living fossil" because it is a primitive species that has changed little since prehistoric times.

wow, 5 ft long, never seen that before

crazy looking fucker

One Ugly thing

I can't believe those assholes murdered it. "Hey this is new! Let's take it and kill it by putting it in a foreign environment!". It was probably trying to warn us of the coming Cthulhu Army...

Looks scary...

You can see the video here

woah, crazy shark..that could mean there's other living fossil still alive..

yeah the videos cool

already seen on tv - looks impressive

It amazes me how little we know about our own world let alone the universe. Humans think we are all so high and mighty but we really know nothing. It sucks how instead of working together as an advanced species to discover the "truth" we work against eachother out of our own greed.

hm...daughter of Hiroshima? lol

Hell, that ugly thing would scare the shit out of me if I saw it in the water.

It would have survived anyway being so close to the surface. Since i lives over 600 meters under the sea it is used to the pressure at that depth.

Wow... that's some crazy shit.

Hard to believe that, in an evolving planet, a creature found a niche to live in - all its own - for that long of a time.

I agree. Fucking murdering commie douchy scientists :mad:

LOL my bad, i meant it would have died anyway. My bad lol.

Do I have to paste the "Greed is good." speech from Wall Street?

wow that is freaky!

Glad to know it lives so far away from me!

saw the pictures in at leat two papers - I wonder how it tastes

Wonder how it tastes like...

Edit: heh, Antonio was first ;)

I just thought of something... it was found in Japan, right?

I bet, right now, there's some Japanese sushi house selling that shit on some rice for $2500 a piece.

:1orglaugh

Great, we will now have those Jap assholes searching for more to kill now and claim it can be used for medicine... :disgust

wow thats a very interesting creature....looks like a male shark had fucked a female Eel or something ... looks half shark and half eel.... :thumbsup

This one is weird too..

The goblin shark, Mitsukurina owstoni, is a rarely seen species of shark. It is notable for its long beak-like rostrum projecting forward of the jaws, its long, protruding jaws, and its pink color. When the jaws are retracted, the shark resembles a pink grey nurse shark, Carcharias taurus, with an unusually long nose. The goblin shark is the sole known living member of the family Mitsukurinidae; the relatively plentiful fossil record includes another two dozen or so species in two (extinct) genera, Scapanorhynchus and Anomotodon.

The discussion about whether Jap is a derogatory phrase applies to this post.. :disgust

i have a neighbor who looks almost exactly like that. :winkwink:

They dont come to the surface.. It did on its own from what I understand, so more than likely there was something wrong with it. They DID put it in an aquarium. Gfy people gah somedays.. :disgust
