I watched it. Actually, it is interesting to watch. That creature is clearly desgined to live in the deep of the sea, and it is a living fossil (the species is perhaps 18 million years old). So, it was interesting to observe. Still: it looks like a sea monster. Get the gun and don't go swimming there !  -- John

Do you mean "Nessie?"
The Loch Ness Monster?

Actually, it does have a backbone. Just a cartilagenous one as opposed to an osseus backbone. What is surprising, is that this is not the first time I have run across a frilled shark. I saw one for sale in the fish market in Vladivostok. The old woman who worked the stall said it made the best fish soup. I passed! Alexandr

Dear Dr. Eric,
Thank you for correcting me. I couldn't figure out what the relationship was with the name 'Nellie' and the Lock Ness monster... but somehow it sounded so 'right'. I was close you know?

Alexandr Well it is a vertebrate, but the canon says backboned fish. So it is ok or not?
