Elf shark

 One of the strangely shaped sharks in the world is the goblin shark.  Its name actually reveals a rather strange shape, which is scary once you see it.  Although it looks like a shark from some fantasy books, it is very real.  Which is that reality often outweighs fiction and this is one of them.  The goblin shark is a real shark found in the depths of the sea.

Do you want to know all the secrets about this strange shark?  Here we explain everything to you.

 Features of Elf Thickness:

 It is a shark with a strange shape and belongs to the family Mitsukirinidae.  This family is extinct except for this species.  This shark, although it looks very hideous, is not unusually large.  It reaches 6 meters in length and can weigh up to 700 kilograms.  Because it lives in the depths of the ocean, it has had to generate some adaptations to these environments.  One of them is being able to squeeze laterally to be longer than it is and narrower.  This serves to enter the finest rocky canyons and trap their victims.

 These teeth vary in size and grow depending on how they come out.  Thus, they are located in the oral cavities and are completely random.  The teeth become completely homogeneous and have different types of thicknesses and sizes.

Fins and colour:

The dorsal and pectoral fins are smaller and easier to see than the pelvic and anal fins.  Over her entire body she has white skin with small pink spots.  The curiosity of this animal is that when you can see it in the pictures, it is completely pink.  However, this is not so.  Currently, the skin of the shark is almost completely reddish-brown.

The characteristic color is due to the fact that having such a thin layer of skin, blood vessels can be seen with the naked eye which gives them this coloring.  Some confuse this color with the fact that the shark is full of blood from its victims.  This makes her look more annoying and dangerous.

Food and accommodation:

Like other sharks, the goblin shark is a species that follows a carnivorous diet.  Among the most common foods we find are crabs, cephalopods of any kind, some shellfish and even other fish.  They are animals that hunt quickly and are very afraid.

They can hunt their prey thanks to the three senses it uses: sight, smell and electrical reception.  One of his most prominent features is that he is a good hunter without the need for speed to catch prey.  It is rather calm, swims slowly, and approaches its targets relatively slowly.  One of their techniques is to move without the slightest movement of their limbs so as not to notice the prey.  Somehow the prey fish think that the animal is dead and that it is being carried away by the current.  At the slightest observation, they are stuck between their teeth.

 With regard to its habitat and area of ​​distribution, we find that it is as wide as the Atlantic Ocean, both the eastern and western parts, the western Indo-western and the western Pacific.  Where it is found in abundance and can be found in areas of Australia as far as the coasts of Japan.  Among all the small islands in that region it can be found in abundance.

There have been some scenes in the United States and in parts of California.  Some missing specimens were also seen in Taiwan and South Africa.  This is summarized in almost all regions of the planet.  Its distribution area is quite high, since it is not an animal that is restricted to a particular geographical area.  This makes him become an unpredictable Hunter.

Reproduction and behavior of the goblin shark:

This shark is considered a rather strange and annoying species because it becomes a shark that does not hover over a geographical area at all.  It can spread over large areas of its own free will.  Their breeding is not well known because they live in depth.  However, it is known that they are egg animals.  That is, although the specimens are born from eggs, they develop in the womb of the female.

They are able to migrate long distances to be able to mate with other specimens during the spring.  As we have seen before, being a species, it swims free to surprise its prey, and also has to move to find individuals for reproduction.  There is not a lot of data about cloning, but more and more information about this cloning is already being obtained.  To this day it remains a mysterious animal.

Regarding its behavior, it is very slow, calm and non-aggressive like other sharks.  His strongest movements are the ones he makes to put stress on the animals.  For hunting, it hunts its prey in the early morning before sunrise.  For humans, it is not dangerous at all, despite its appearance.  If it bites us, it can cause serious damage.  But nevertheless, we do not have to feel fear or danger if we approach anyone, because they will not attack us.
