Tiger shark (Galeocerdo cuvier) discovered dragging 300 feet of line attached to a jug off Oahu, Hawaii 🌎

Process known as 'jugging' which is a practice done by fishermen to deter predators from target fishing areas🎣

Smallspotted catsharks at different life stages. You can clearly see them moving inside the eggcase.

Chain Catshark baby (Scyliorhinus retifer). Ventro-lateral view of the umbilical cord-like connection to the yolk sac. Gill filaments are sprouting through the gill slits, even through the spiracle opening behind the eye! #devbio #shark #babyshark @Ella_Nicklin @UF_CLAS 🦈

Female-only refuging aggregations occur regularly in this species and probably arise from the
avoidance of males.

Here is an interesting fact: these two eggs were layed by the same shark on the same day, but they hatched one week apart from each other.

Did you see the color change? Scientists can use the Bradford assay to measure the concentration of total protein present in a sample. As proteins bind to the dye, the color changes to blue. However, if there is no protein to bind, the solution will remain brown.#science #protein

As of today and until the end of 2021, landings of all mako sharks captured in the Atlantic (north of 5°N) are prohibited in Portugal.

Catshark eggs are translucid. You can see the yolk and the embryo which allows scientists to observe their development via non-invasive methods. Indeed, 7 developmental stages have been identified to follow the embryogenic process (Musa et al, 2018).
