Frilled Shark Chlamydoselachiformes

Japanese Scientists captured a Frilled Shark on Film. These Sharks live between 600 and 1000 metres under the water. Officials of the Awashima Marine Park in Shizuoka said it had come that close to the surface because of sickness or just weakness. The shark died a few hours after being caught. Frilled Sharks are rarely seen alive. Humans can’t go that deep.
