What's a nice girl like me is doing in a place like this ?
I have seen a show about the wild life at sea and in it was a part about fish eggs.appernetly some fishes eggs are not round ( among them I only remember the manta ray ) why is it so ?
Dogfish, skates, sharks and rays lay these strange eggs for a good reason , in these large species the embryo develop to a large size inside of the female fish , she then lay them and they hang to the ocean floor for protection, this eggs shell is pretty hard as well.
You can view some of these eggs at this site
