Good morning Okanagan! Let’s get your Friday started!
Fun Fact: Horn sharks don’t birth their young, they lay eggs that are in a corkscrew shape that look almost glass-like but are rubbery in texture.
@california.shelling Some sharks give birth to live young, and others are oviparous, meaning they lay eggs. California horn sharks mothers lay these corkscrew egg cases. When it comes out, it is very pliable, but hardens over time. Hope this lil guy makes it! 🦈 #shark #sealife #oceanlife #fyp ♬ original sound - California.Shelling
