Sleeper Shark Necropsy
I got invited to help out with a shark necropsy, in other words I got to retrieve a shark from a fisherman and gut it open. I dragged Tara along with me. The shark is a sleeper shark and was about 8 ft long. The 2 large whitish/tanish blobs are the 2 livers and the middle is its stomach which we opened and found a chunk of salmon and a couple of squid or octopus beaks.
