Gastric Eversion (vomiting) In Sharks
Below is a video (with commentary) showing a Shortfin Mako shark displaying gastric or stomach eversion - a little similar to vomiting. Quote:
![]() Shortfin Mako, Isurus oxyrinchus, with its stomach manually everted out of its mouth. The stomach was everted by pulling on it anteriorly and pushing it from within the coelomic cavity. |

Nor me, it's fascinating!! I ended up watching loads of videos of sharks puking up. They were all pretty much the same and this was the most impressive.
