OH thanks for sharing YESTERDAY. LOL, JK pretty cool huh?

 

[BriOnH]

Dang! Thank thing is weird looking. Kinda like those dragons you see in chinese new years parades! I wonder if it's a really old species or something recently mutated.

 

[bobby]

No it old they say it hasnt changed much since the jurassic times. The reason its soo rare is becuase it live 2000 feet in the ocean, so its not seen much. It makes me wounder what else is down there.

 

[BriOnH]

Guess I should have read the article and not watched the vidoe! Doh! I couldn't get the video on reuturs. Had to go to CNN.

For the people who view this please tell me if you were able to watch this video.

 

[Nedim]

I watched it on the original link.


Very cool, I think its interesting that the shark was that docile.

 

[JellyMan]

It was ancient I found it day before yesterday and mator seen it before I did so well point the finger at her.

 

[jermpool]

Freaky.

 

[Bifferwine]

Yeah, they said it hasn't evolved in over 50 million years... (It hasn't had to -- it lives so deep in the ocean that its surroundings and habitat haven't changed). Talk about a living fossil.

 

[ToMatorClown]

Jelly you are mistaken. I had not seen it. I was talking about something completely different.

FOXNews.com - Japanese Researchers Find Dolphin With 'Remains of Legs' - Science News | Current Articles

This is what I was talking about Jelly. I'm begining to believe that Japan is doing some kind of "water testing" This is about a dolphin they believe has feet.

 

[Bifferwine]

Yeah, they find weird stuff around there I guess? That dolphins' limbs transitioned into flippers has been known for a while though, "Fossil remains show dolphins and whales were four-footed land animals about 50 million years ago and share common ancestors with hippopotamuses and deer." (That's from the article).

If you look at the skeletal structure of whale and dolphin fins, they have the exact same bones and structure as other mammals' hands/paws. It's pretty cool.
