Virgin shark got pregnant in Virginia aquarium By Will Dunham

This just PROVES creationism is the one truth we have left! Down with Darwin!!!!


*Cough cough*



Thats pretty cool! I wonder if this is a new thing, or just a recently discovered thing....
 
I remember that shark. She attacked and bit one of the aquarists there.
I'm still against this idea. Pups develop and are reabsorbed by females often. So an unborn "pup" doesn't really tell anything.
Also, here are several mehods of DNA esing. Some will give various results even with known breeding pair offspring.
 
This has been known to happen with many other types of animals before. I could go into detail as to why but unless your very familiar with embryo development there's no point. If you are interested google parthenogenesis.

For this mother, there are 8 months unaccounted for. Not probable that she was bred that soon in the wild, but we don't know 100 percent. Unless it occurs in a captive bred female so we can account for her entire life, it's all a guess.

And like I said in the other post, in elsamos, unborn pups like this will grow and usually result in self abortions of a non developed pup or pups are reabsorbed into the female.
 
Shark does not have a father? Divorce is such a terrible thing for kids....

Zoodiver I forgot to mention in the other thread that I posted in but he pup was fully formed and almost full term if that makes a difference.
