Goblin Shark: The Ghost of the Deep

Goblin Shark: The Ghost of the Deep

This week, we’re diving back into the mysterious world of one of the ocean’s strangest and most elusive creatures — the Goblin Shark (Mitsukurina owstoni). Often called the “living fossil” of the shark world, this deep-sea predator looks like something out of a nightmare — or a prehistoric past — with its long, flattened snout and lightning-fast, extendable jaws. Found in the dark depths of the ocean, often below 1,000 meters, the Goblin Shark is rarely seen by humans, making every encounter a glimpse into the ancient lineage of sharks that have survived for over 125 million years. While Goblin Sharks are not currently considered endangered, their deep-sea habitat means they are vulnerable to bycatch from deepwater fisheries and the impacts of deep-sea mining and pollution. Like all sharks, they play a vital role in maintaining healthy marine ecosystems by keeping prey populations balanced and the food web stable. Protecting these incredible animals — even those we rarely see — is essential for preserving the ocean’s delicate equilibrium. =========================================================== Another thank you to all our Patreon supporters.
