Sharks are so tough, their embryos are known to attack one another. The largest embryo in a shark litter is known to eat its fellow embryos, in an act known as intrauterine cannibalism. Researchers looked at this phenomenon in sand sharks, noting that, "While 12 littermates may start out the journey, all but one is devoured by the biggest in the pack. That strategy allows sand tiger sharks to have much larger babies at birth than other shark species, making the little ones relatively safe from other predators."

Did you know: there are features of elephant anatomy that suggest that they might have adopted a semi-aquatic way of life at some point in their evolutionary history?

The lungs of modern elephants are surrounded by loose connective tissue, not the bag-like ‘pleural cavity’ found in other land mammals, and this allows them to resist some of the damaging effects of water pressure. In addition, the kidneys of elephant foetuses possess features that are common in aquatic mammals but not land mammals. If the theory is true, the ancestors of today’s elephants must have moved into the water and then returned to the land, while their sirenian cousins (manatees/dugongs) went on to become fully aquatic.

Southern right whale dolphin: very distinctive southern hemisphere finless oceanic dolphin! Their cousin - the northern right whale dolphin - is found off our CA coastline: primarily black, they are not frequently encountered off southern CA.

Shark skeletons are very different from skeletons of bony fish and terrestrial vertebrates. Sharks and other cartilaginous fish (rays and chimeras) have skeletons made of cartilage and connective tissue.
