Super-Rare ‘Living Fossil’ Shark Caught Off Australian Coast

Fishermen in Australia were stunned last month when they hauled up a shark so strange-looking that it’s been called a “living fossil”–300 teeth and all (scroll down for photos).

The super-rare frilled shark (Chlamydoselachus anguineus) showed up in the nets of a trawler operating near in waters off Victoria, Australia, The Telegraph reported.

The catch came as quite a surprise.
