Dracula is back. Turns out he's a fake! Or at least a fake vampire-like fish. A newly discovered freshwater carp-like minnow has been aptly named, Danionella Dracula, for it's vampire-like “teeth.”
These would-be fangs are actually part of a redeveloped jaw structure that give the wee freshwater fellow a vampire appearance. This is not the first time Danionella Dracula has developed this feature. They had "vampire-teeth" years ago, were absorbed in their evolution and then spent the past 30 million years redeveloping.
