This shark is the wildest looking thing I've ever seen, never heard of it and definately wouldn't want to see one on a night dive.

It looks like it's about 500 years old. Odd for sure.

It is a Frill shark, only lives in very deep water.

Seen this a couple of months back.

They caught it and it died a few hours later.

Very cool shark! Its sad that it died. Makes me wonder if they had just left it alone what would have happened?
