When a shark gets stoned to the gills, is it measured from the tail forwards or from the snout backwards?

Claspers to gills

[–] sik0fewl@piefed.ca 4 points 14 hours ago

I assumed it was from the brain.

[–] Cort@lemmy.world 5 points 15 hours ago

It's actually from the internal point between the gills outward to the gills.

Sharks can only be found in two places on earth: the northern and southern hemispheres

[–] PancakesCantKillMe@lemmy.world 1 points 13 hours ago

What about the eastern and western hemispheres? I haven’t checked, so I’ll take your word for it.
