One of the terrifying deep sea creatures, Goblin Shark is a rare species of shark that lives deep in the ocean. Their unusual lifestyle has earned them the name of Vampire Shark too. These 10-13 feet long aquatic animal is not like other species of shark. They look ugly and extremely scary. The pink-skinned Goblin Shark has a long and flat snout and it is used for attacks on the prey. The jaws are filled with sharp teeth and are highly protrusible. The colour of the Goblin sharks act as a good camouflage, often confusing the prey. Even if they are scary looking, they don’t attack humans. Their food mostly consists if teleost fishes and other fishes living in the bottom layer.

The shark species can be seen in almost all major oceans in the world. They have an odd-looking jaw and helps the species in to sweep up prey that passes by. It is slow in nature so don’t hunt on prey instead waits for the prey to come near. As soon as the prey passes by it snaps its jaw forward to grab it. The species is not considered endangered or threatened because of its habitat. They love to stay in the deep sea far from fishing nets and pollution that could threaten them, however, there are reports that say that fisherman in Japan and in Portugal are fishing this strange creature but it is not common.
