They make amazing bait for fishing. I have no fucking idea why someone would eat them and you don't want them as a pet either. They smell like diarrhea shit and rotting fish rolled together and left in a garbage heap to ferment. Probably one of the worst things I've ever smelled and I'm the medical profession so that's saying a lot. I've had the smell linger on my hands for days after I've fished with them.

What the fuck? Is it like a relative of the Goblin Shark? I've legitimately never heard of this shark before.

You'd think so, because Lantern sharks (which are technically dogfish), Viper sharks included, are deep sea creatures; tiny and bio-luminescent, but they belong to the Etmopteridae family, while Goblins belong to the Mitsukurina family. What's fascinating is that every single genus in the Mitsukurina family is extinct, save for the Goblin shark, making them the last survivor of their family tree. Kinda sad really.
I'm in no way an expert, but from what I understand, they are not related.

>The swell shark uses moonlight to turn itself luminous green, allowing it to blend in and stand out at the same time.

I don't know what to think about that. It is both astonishingly beautiful and absolute nightmare fuel. I wonder how big it was. It is pretty hard to tell in open water.
