Baby shark swimming inside egg! (NOT AQUARIUM).
During this dusk dive at Chesil Cove, UK we found this Mermaid's Pouch, containing a live baby shark/ray moving around. The round black shape is the embryo and you can see the tail of the shark moving around. This was filmed around 7pm and at approximately 10m depth. The pouch containing the young shark is a tough leathery material that has attached itself to this plant life. Shining a light behind the pouch creates a silhouette of the baby shark that can be seen from the other side. There was some surge during the dive, as can be seen by the rocking in the video. This movement was caused by the water conditions, we were very careful not to touch the plant or of course, the Mermaid's Pouch itself. Thanks for watching :)
