My love of batoids. |9:53 AM|

Are there such things as fetal sharks? I've never heard the term shark eggs, so I would assume. This started off as a "conversation breaker". It's a discussion you can have with certain people, something that messes with their heads. It's a "wait a second....where DO sharks come from?" No one believes those tales of a submersible stork bringing bundles of carnivorous joy to underwater couples.

After some research (Whereupon I cam across the word "batoids" to describe skates and manta rays. Status: Alright.) I have found that a large number of sharks give live births, that the mother has this pouch to contain her offspring, complete with umbilical chord.
Wacky.


Oh, here's a dumb movie:
Snow Cow
