Not long ago, an American girl named Rebecca shared a clip of walking on the beach on TikTok and attracted a huge interaction of 46.7 million views. Many viewers were extremely surprised when she picked up a strange object on the beach and explained what it was.


TikTok video attracts more than 46 million views.

The answer to this strange object is shark eggs. This interesting fact makes many people stunned because they never imagined that this fish species has eggs with such unusual shapes.

It looks like a strange object but it is actually a shark egg.

In fact, the fact that sharks lay eggs alone surprised many of Rebecca's viewers. In the world today, only a few species of sharks lay eggs to reproduce, because most sharks give birth to live young, meaning the eggs develop inside the mother's body.

Shark eggs, which are typically about the size of your palm, come in a variety of colors, shapes, and textures, depending on the species of shark. Not all species lay eggs as unique as the one Rebecca found.

One of the strangest-looking shark eggs is that of the draughtboard shark (Cephaloscyllium laticeps ). It is orange-yellow, with bright fringes that look a lot like cake decorations. Then there are the eggs of the Australian ghost shark (Callorhinchus milii), which look like a prop from a sci-fi movie, with a dark blue color and ribbed edges.

Several different types of shark eggs.

Once a shark lays its eggs, the baby sharks are completely on their own, exposed to the weather and other predators. When they hatch, they should be ready to move, able to feed themselves, and able to care for themselves. Scientists have not found any evidence that parent sharks care for their young after they lay their eggs.
