The specimen here, collected almost 190 years ago, reveals row upon row of molar-like teeth that together form a bumpy surface perfect for crunching and grinding up hard-shelled crustacean prey. These new photographs capture the fish's secret weapon for breaking into its breakfast--but just imagine how hard it would be to floss
