Love Songs Will Serenade Sharks to Help Them Mate "Sharks are to be serenaded by Barry White at The National Sea Life Centre in Birmingham in an experiment to help them mate. His love songs and other romantic tunes will be pumped in to tanks containing dogfish, starry smooth hounds and tope." [via MeFi]
That paragraph alone makes this worth posting, but it's not even the best part of the article. This is:
"The experiment follows the revelation of the centre's 'Rock lobster', Ginger, who has a penchant for pop. The crustacean reacts to music played to it on a radio by picking up the vibrations and wiggling its antennae. Visitors say it looks like dancing."
It wasn't a rock, it was a rock lobster! Now try to get the song out of your head tonight. You're welcome.
