Shark gulps another shark whole
[ Thu, 16 Feb 2012 15:30:05 GMT ]

Researchers spotted a tasseled wobbegong shark consuming headfirst a somewhat smaller brown-banded bamboo shark on the southern Great Barrier Reef on Aug. 1, 2011.The photo says it all: an alien-looking shark, adorned with mossy hairs and a flat face, with its mouth agape and a slender bamboo shark headfirst inside. Though not unusual for a shark to snack on another shark, it's not typical behavior.
