The viper shark named for its fearsome fangs have been fished out in the Pacific Ocean near Taiwan.
Using its terrifying mouth, it can swallow larger fish with one bite.
The sharks are very rare. Scientists first got a look at one in 1987 after a Japanese fishing boat caught two immature male sharks.

Taiwan's Fisheries Research Institute revealed it has now caught five of the sharks in a survey near the coast of Donghe Township.Four of them were dead. however, the lone survivor died within a day of being placed into a tank.
The institute stated.
“The most obvious feature of this species is the needle-like teeth that look like snake fangs, which is where the name viper shark originates from.”
Viper sharks only live in waters near Japan.
Viper sharks mainly eat crustaceans and bony fish, including lanternfishes.Shark have extending jaws just like the Aliens.
There are still many mysteries left in the depths of oceans, which remain mostly unexplored.
