Unveiling the ‘Demon Catshark’ and a growing catalog of shark species

In the realm of deep-sea exploration, humanity’s quest for knowledge has revealed a plethora of a new shark species, the Demon Catshark.

Once believed to consist of approximately 360 distinct species, sharks have surpassed expectations with recent discoveries pushing the count beyond 500.

From the delicate dwarf lanternshark, measuring a mere 20cm (8in) in length, to the colossal whale shark, a filter-feeding gentle giant and the largest known fish on Earth, the diversity within the shark family continues to astonish.

With no signs of slowing down, scientists are left to wonder what other remarkable findings await them in the uncharted depths of our oceans.
