"Stabbing" shark（非洲侏儒鋸鯊）
Do you believe it? A shark and a saw are perfectly combined to be a sawshark! In fact, such an animal does exist on the planet. In 2011, scientists captured an African dwarf sawshark in a 1600-foot-deep trawling net off the coast of Mozambique, which brought the total number of sawshark species in the world to seven. The shark, with the scientific name of Pristiophorus nancyae, is a small but very aggressive animal. It usually hunts blindly into schools of fish, stabbing randomly with its sword nose, and then enjoys its meal from the casualties. It looks funny but actually is quite terrifying.
