Frilled Shark — In 2007, a fisherman near Tokyo, Japan, told Awashiwa Marine Park officials that he'd just seen a very unusual eel-like creature with needle-sharp teeth. Staff at the park followed the fisherman, who directed them to the 5-foot-long oddity. They caught the creature, which was later identified as a frilled shark. Scientists who buy evolution had assumed this species had been extinct for millions of years. It has been termed by many to be a "Living fossil". I believe God created t

It's body shape and the number of gill are similar to fossils of sharks which lived 350,000,000 years ago.
