Japanese Angelshark
The Japanese Angelshark is a species of shark that is native to the coastal waters of Japan. It is known for its flattened body and large pectoral fins that resemble angel wings, giving it its name. This shark typically inhabits sandy or muddy sea floors where it can camouflage itself and ambush prey. The Japanese Angelshark is a nocturnal hunter, feeding on fish, crustaceans, and other small marine creatures. It is a relatively docile species and poses little threat to humans. Despite this, the Japanese Angelshark is considered to be vulnerable to extinction due to overfishing and habitat destruction.
