A new species of shark that WALKS beneath the waves has been photographed for the first time. The shark can be seen using its front four fins to walk along the sea floor off the islands of Indonesia . Filmed at the Weda Resort, on one of the Maluku Islands, the shark crawls along the sand, a technique developed to allow it to catch prey. This species is called the hemiscyllium halmahera after the group of sharks it is closely related to and also the place it was found, the eastern Maluku island of Halmahera.Picture: CATERS
