Don’t look now, but we might be taking a step down in the food chain.Future Land Shark

A U.S.-based Team of Scientists from Conservation International said Monday they had discovered dozens of new species while combing through undersea fauna off Indonesia’s Papua province, including a shark that walks on its fins.

Evidently the shark will swim along the ocean bottom… using it’s fins to “walk” when it needs to maneuver at a different pace. Scientists have been unable to verify whether or not the sharks can walk on their hind fins, maneuver up and down stairs, or operate door knobs. They did caution that it is now no longer safe to open your door without visual confirmation when a stranger knocks and introduces themselves as a “Candygram” delivery person.
