Transcript

00:00:01,633 --> 00:00:04,367
NARRATOR: The ragged tooth
shark holds its secrets close.
2
00:00:08,667 --> 00:00:13,900
This is an after-dark
mating rendezvous.
3
00:00:13,900 --> 00:00:17,934
Scars are the only evidence.
4
00:00:17,934 --> 00:00:23,900
This female bears teeth
marks from males holding on.
5
00:00:23,900 --> 00:00:25,233
But mating makes her hungry.
6
00:00:29,066 --> 00:00:31,600
Her needle-like
teeth don't slice.
7
00:00:31,600 --> 00:00:32,333
They impale.
8
00:00:41,433 --> 00:00:46,600
Her eyes are tiny, so she relies
on her electromagnetic sense
9
00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:47,333
to find food.
10
00:00:51,166 --> 00:00:53,000
Black spots on
her face are sacks
11
00:00:53,000 --> 00:00:57,166
of jelly that pick up vibrations
given off by other fish.
12
00:00:59,834 --> 00:01:02,667
If you have a heart
beat, there's no hiding.
13
00:01:17,967 --> 00:01:24,567
Flat fish like sole and flounder
are practically invisible,
14
00:01:24,567 --> 00:01:26,734
but she's an expert
at finding them.
15
00:01:26,734 --> 00:01:33,367
