Cool news on the front of the Times-Dispatch today about Maymont adding a new shark exhibit. Colleen Curran reported that “the new sharks at Maymont are chain catsharks, due to the interesting snake-skin-type pattern on their backs. They can typically be found in the Chesapeake Bay, as well as up an down the Atlantic Coast.”
