A frilled shark, rarely seen alive because
its natural habitat is 600 metres or more under the sea, is seen in this photo
released by the Awashima Marine Park in Numazu, south of Tokyo January 24, 2007.
The primitive shark was caught and filmed at the Japanese marine park after
receiving a call from a fisherman at a nearby port on Sunday when he came across
the odd-looking eel-like creature with a mouthful of sharp teeth. [Reuters]
