Oviparity in sharks can be categorized as single or retained. [2] With single oviparity, the egg cases are extruded soon after fertilization. [2] With retained oviparity, eggs are kept within the oviduct for a period of time before depositing outside of the body as an unhatched egg case. [2] It is thought that viviparity is the ancestral condition for sharks, and that it evolved through the elongation of retention time of retained oviparity.

(2007). "Descriptions of skate egg cases (Chondrichthyes: Rajiformes: Rajoidei) from the eastern North Pacific". Zootaxa 1393: 1-18.The size of egg cases vary; those of the small-spotted catshark or lesser spotted dogfish, Scyliorhinus canicula, are around 5 centimetres (2in) long, while those of the greater spotted dogfish, S. stellaris, are around 10 centimetres (4in). That excludes the four long tendrils found in each corner, which assist in anchorage. Egg cases from rays vary in that they have points rather than tendrils. The colours and shapes of egg cases also vary greatly from species to species. If your children have a fascination with mermaids, they might just like making this mermaid egg craft!

Egg cases are made of collagen protein strands, [4] and are often described as feeling rough and leathery.

[1] [6] Egg cases without a fibrous outer layer can be striated, bumpy, or smooth and glossy. [1] [6] With the exception of bullhead shark eggs, egg cases are typically rectangular in shape with projections, called horns, at each corner. [1] [6] Depending on the species, egg cases may have one or more tendrils. [5] Development [ edit ] a b c d e f g h Compagno, Leonard (2002). "Sharks of the World".

You can buy coloured air-dry clay or you can get a big tub of white/natural clay and stain it with watercolours or food colouring. That’s what we did. For a more even finish, mix a few drops of paint into the clay before starting to sculpt. On the picture above you can see how the clay looked before and after staining. However, you can also sculpt with whatever colour you’ve got and paint the surface once the clay is dry.
