Apparent death - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Many animals, such as sharks, beetles, snakes and the Virginia opossum, are capable of appearing to be dead to an observer, while otherwise alive. This could either be a reflex action, as in tonic imm...

Joy Young and Bryan Franks escorting a shark out of its holding pen for tonic immobility testing. ... When possible, we will also perform tonic immobility studies on hooked sharks. Here is Grant Johnson with a 120cm C. limbatus alongside the boat. After the hook is removed, controls and test are performed with the...

Sharks may not always respond to tonic immobility by physical inversion of the animal, as has been done with lemon and reef sharks. With tiger sharks 10 to 15 feet in length, tonic immobility may be achieved by placing hands lightly on the sides of the animal's snout approximate to the general area surrounding its eyes.

A suggestive QTL was found for tonic immobility on CJA01, and chromosome-wide significant QTL for body temperature were detected on CJA01 and CJA03. Other chromosome-wide significant QTL were found on CJA02, CJA05, CJA09 and CJA14.
