Title: Rare Prehistoric Shark In Japan Post by: Vatsal on January 31, 2008, 08:08:31 AM Rare Prehistoric Shark In Japan
A rare prehistoric shark was discovered by local residents in Shizuoka, southwest of Tokyo. The huge eel-like creature, considered to be a living fossil, was taken to Japan’s Awashima Marine Park and placed in a seawater pool. But the new environment was fatal and, only just a few hours after it was moved, the unusual shark died.
