Both dorsal fins are similar in size and the eye is small. Several sharks less than 1 m long were patrolling up and down a narrow waterway. They would not come near an underwater camera.

Shark was about 6ft long and seen at a depth of 130ft at La Jolla Shores. The shark stayed with 5 divers for a couple minutes and did not seem to care we were there. It sauntered deeper into the canyon and we did not follow it. Photo credit: TJ Esposito.

Golden Toad (Incilius periglenes)Observer
herpguyDescription
This pair of now extinct Golden Toads was photographed at the entrance to the Monteverde Cloud Forest Reserve where they were kept for visitors to the park to see since their observance in the wild was limited to only a few days a year during the onset of their breeding season (late May & early June). This species is sexually dimorphic, the males are bright orange or yellow and females are dark brown with red spots.

The snake "fell out" of the figtree twice in a morning, captured and released at a more remote spot in the Garden. Apparently a gravid female form the snake handeler.
