Since 2002, due to heavy demand for the deepsea
shark liver oil from pharmaceutical companies
and foreign nations, a targeted fishery for the deepsea
gulper sharks (Centrophorus spp.), which is
locally called mullan sravu (vernacular for shark
having spines) or enna sravu (oil shark) was observed
from the landings at Cochin Fisheries Harbour.
During this period, deep-sea chondrichthyans other
than gulper sharks like the bramble shark
Echinorhinus brucus and chimaera Neoharriotta
pinnata were also landed as by-catch in the deepsea
shrimp trawl fishery which were was also utilized
similarly for oil extraction
