Scientists just discovered that Greenland sharks, which live in super dark deep ocean waters, actually have amazing eyes that let them see in the pitch black! These giant sharks hunt in darkness so deep that sunlight never reaches them, but their special eyes pick up tiny amounts of light that would be invisible to us. Now scientists are wondering what these sharks can actually see down there in the spooky depths!
