White shark jaw which unfortunately has extensive damage to both the cartilage and the teeth gum line. All the teeth will be removed, treated and then placed in the jaw, one by one. Shark was estimated at 4.3 metres, caught in the late 1980’s #elasmomorph #whiteshark #sharkjaws
This beautiful embryo from a Port Jackson shark (Heterodontus portusjacksoni) goes back to 1977, when it was placed in a jar of ethanol by a very good friend of mine #elasmomorph #portjacksonshark #sharkembryo
And so begins a new chapter in White shark restoration over the next few months. All came with CITES export papers and therefore can be sold with appropriate export papers out of Australia #elasmomorph #whiteshark #sharkjaws
