Tapeworm Eggs Found in Fossilized Shark Poo

Well then… now you know.

Scientists now reveal they found a spiral-shaped coprolite from a shark that holds a cluster of 93 oval tapeworm eggs. One of them even contains a probable developing larva, which held a cluster of fiberlike objects that may have been the beginnings of hooklets used to attach to a host’s intestines as adults.

  3. Nope. God created the fossil, with shark intact, with tapeworm intact, with larva intact, with fiber-like objects intact, with hooklets intact, just to confuse us.
