Goblin Shark

Another sea creature can depose a strange defense mechanism as a way to keep enemies at bay. Also known as a living fossil, the goblin shark is a rare species of deep-sea shark. The pink-skinned animal can catapult its jaw forward by two pairs of elastic ligaments along the mandibular joint.

Researchers were able to confirm this spectacular sight through events that were videotaped and recorded for the first time between 2008 and 2011. The video also showed that goblin sharks typically use ram feeding as a way of sustenance.
