J'ADORE LIVING FOSSILS!

We usually don't J'Adore something so hideously frightening! It reminds of our days working retail! But what we DO J'Adore is something as fascinating as this! We'd like you all to meet Frilled Shark!

FS is a DEEP sea shark that has evolved very little since pre-historic times and that lives in depths too deep for human exploration (2,000+ feet below sea level). So, it was with great J'Adoration that one was found and captured ALIVE in shallow waters off the coast of Japan...(most specimens found in the past have been dead and caught in fisherman's nets).

But we have to give a big Je N'Adore Pas to Frilled Shark because she died very soon after being captured. Until we are able to J'Adore each other again in the depths of the big ocean in the sky....
