Found a few of these washed up on the beach today. Didn’t know what it was at the time, but some fellow students did and explained it to me- so interesting!!
Anybody else know or want to guess??

I will never stop feeling grateful to have this 5 mins away… the freedom to pick up from nursery and head to do some beachcombing if the sky is blue cannot be understated. High tide left a multitude of treasure #barryisland #beachcombing #mermaidspurse

Home in North Wales for Christmas and found a great collection of shark and ray egg cases on the beach after recent storms. For comparison L-R: (Thornback?) ray, Bullhuss / Greater Spotted Dogfish and Cat Shark / Lesser Spotted Dogfish. #eggcase #ukshark #mermaidspurse #beachcoming #nature

By building detailed catalogues of egg cases, we can gain valuable insights into species distribution, reproductive habitats and the health of our marine ecosystems.

Each egg case provides a safe nursery pouch for the next generation, offering protection while the embryo develops before hatching.

Have you ever come across an egg case on the shore? Share a photo with us in the comments!

Next time you’re beachcombing, keep an eye out for these “mermaid’s purses”—tiny ocean gifts that hint at the secret lives of sharks just offshore.🏖🥚🦈
