where... I don't see no eel shark

watch the video, retardo. its there about halfway through.

it doesn't look like a very sucessful species. it looks so akward and i can't imagine that being much of a threat to anything. and did they say why it's being considered a shark? looks like a sturgeon/mud puppy....

btw, the thing died- it usually lives super far down but it was sick and got too close to the surface or something.

I saw that on the news the other night.

That is what I was about to say, Stilleto. If it came up from the depths, it was dying. They have only seen those sharks dead before. They surface sometimes when they die. I guess they were just in the right place at the right time this time when it was coming up to die.
