Science Countdown: 6 More Days

Hi there Sci Slugs!

The countdown continues with another interesting fact to get your day going and to keep you pumped for the magazine release on May 4th.

Catsharks emit a green bio-fluorescence that can only be seen through shark vision.  At depth, it is important for members of the same species to be able to locate each other despite the lack of light.  So what’s special about the Catshark?  As it swims to the deepest, darkest parts of the ocean it’s bio-fluorescence increases! This improves its ability to communicate and thrive.
