Cladoselache

This strange eel-shaped creature was one of the first sharks. Scientists say it was probably quick in the water and agile thanks to its long, streamlined torso.

It appeared at a time when much of this area was a shallow ocean. Many well-preserved fossils have been found around Lake Erie.

Cladoselache went extinct about 300 million years ago.
