Sharks Getting Ready...

To take it up a notch and fuck our days up. Last week I showed you the new octopus land infantry, and now this.

From Newser:
Shark Week will have some new additions this year: Scientists found the first hybrid sharks in the world—57 of them—off the coast of Australia. The animals are a cross between the Australian blacktip shark and the common blacktip shark, and their existence may show that sharks are adapting to climate change, CNN reports. 

While such interbreeding occurs among fish, which lay eggs, it's more deliberate among sharks, which physically mate, notes a scientist. Another researcher notes that the discovery could also mean that other shark and ray species are doing the same inter-breeding. 

DNA testing confirmed the hybridization of the sharks, and further testing will determine their fitness. "Wild hybrids are usually hard to find, so detecting hybrids and their offspring is extraordinary. To find 57 hybrids along (1,200 miles) of coastline is unprecedented," the researcher says.

Great, really fucking great. Like sharks aren't badass enough. Now they learned that if they bone other kinds of sharks they can get even more deadly. This is fucking sweet. You know it's just a matter of time before a great white mans up and bones a huge whale shark, then we have a 30-foot great white. That'll be awesome. I'm done going in the ocean, fuck that shit.
