The elusive and bizarre ghost shark revealed
The enigmatic and ancient Ghost Shark is one of the most intangible sea creatures. Now scientists have managed to film a species of ghost shark for the first time. Its proper name is the pointy-nosed blue chimaera, and one of the scientists who's entranced by it is Dave Ebert from the Pacific Shark Research Center at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, USA.
