The weirdest and coolest aspect of this unusual shark is its retractable jaw, which resembles that nasty critter zonked out of the spacecraft in that old horror classic, Alien. It really seems to leap out of its mouth in order to catch its unsuspecting prey.
The goblin shark is truly an odd and lonely creature. Identified mainly by the unusual shape of its head, or snout, which is much longer than other sharks, and also its odd coloured pink skin. Watch the video for the goblin shark in action.
