Because it’s been seen so rarely, scientists still know very little about it. But its striking features are already sparking debate about whether it should be given special protection, and some have even argued it could become an icon species for Papua New Guinea.
At a time when we so often hear about species disappearing, the return of this little shark is a reminder that nature can surprise us ... and that there’s always reason to hope.

Are you fed up with finding moths have eaten holes in your woolens? Here's the permanent solution!
Bought by my parents in the 1940s and used to store woolens - wonderful to keep wool garments moth-free and ready to wear! Ditto woolen blankets, etc.
3 shelves fixed securely in place.
Doors lockable with original key, plus a spare key. Hinges in good working order.
Beautifully made - elegant lines and legs.
Are you a collector? This is for you :)
A real bargain!!
Unfortunately redundant to current needs after down-sizing to 1 bedroom unit.
Welcome to come and view in Palmerston North.

Research published this year has demonstrated that playing music helps keep dementia at bay - no matter how late in life the skill is picked up.
The basic idea behind this research is not new - we know that 'cognitive reserve' (learning new things) plays a big role in delaying mental slowdown. But the reminder that "it is never too late" is welcome ...
