''Wodnika'' is an extinct
genus of
shark which lived in the
Late Permian period in the present area of
Germany and
Russia. It measured about 1 m (3.2 ft) in length and its tail shape indicates it was probably a good swimmer. Internally, the cartilage skeleton is preserved on the
fossil, which is fairly rare for fossilized sharks.
