Cyclops Shark Found in Sea of Cortez 1
The shark, nicknamed “Cycloptomus” by its captors was an unborn pup that was removed from a large female bull shark captured off of Mexico in the Sea of Cortez. The shark was already dead by the time it was removed from its large female bull shark mother. If it had been found alive, it would undoubtedly spent its entire life in an aquarium.
