Found in the belly of its bull shark mother, this astounding real life albino baby shark appears to have one eye!
Dubbed
the “Cyclops” shark, it was one of ten shark pups pulled from the
mother’s stomach by a commercial fisherman off the southeast coast of
La Paz, Mexico.

Many
initially doubted the validity of the shark images, but Felipe Galvan,
a Mexican scientist, confirmed that he had examined the shark and had
completed a scientific paper about it.

He
also said the shark suffered from cyclopia, a rare disorder that
produces only one eye due to the bodies inability to split the eye
orbits into separate cavities. There have been only around 50 recorded
cases of this extremely rare defect. Shark fishing is common in the area
due to families in coastal Baja not having many other options to make a
living.
