I think there is something magical about them too - when I was in an aquarium in Barrow-in-Furness last spring, they had a display which was mermaid's purses with embryos inside them - you could see the little sharks swimming around inside! The ones we saw were dogfish - they had another display which contained the cases and the newly hatched tiny little sharks, and the third tank in the series was the sharks just before release into the main tank. It was truly inspiring!Corrie Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01324439648715283460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6835785024084523237.post-15461374502261560752014-09-16T11:49:25.126-07:002014-09-16T11:49:25.126-07:00I just love mermaid purses!
