Viviparous

Only about 30 % of all shark species are oviparous, i.e. lay eggs - like, e.g., turtles – and leave the young, which will hatch some time later, to themselves.

In the laid egg of the catshark, the tiny animal and the comparatively huge yolk are clearly visibly.

Lebendgebärend ( Viviparie )

Denn nur rund 30 % aller Haiarten sind ovipar, d.h. sie legen Eier ab - wie z.B. Schildkröten - und überlassen die irgendwann später schlüpfenden Tiere sich selbst.

Beim gelegten Ei eines Katzenhais, sind das noch winzige Tier und der vergleichsweise riesige Eidotter deutlich erkennbar.
