The mega-mouth shark has been identified as a new species. Scientist's have recently discovered the name of a shark that they have been searching for for years.Scientist had the teeth of the shark that were being and they were being held for many years in a Los Angeles museum. The shark would feed off of plankton as well as other shrimp-like creatures. The shark would only come to the shallow surfaces of the water to feed and specifically only during the night time. This is a very ancient shark and we have not seen one in many years.
This article really interests me considering there is so much life out there than is just now being discovered. There is a whole undersea world out there to still be discovered and identified.
