This is called parthenogenesis and is a known phenomenon, albeit rare in vertebrates. Some species, like the New Mexico whiptail, rely on it (all New Mexico whiptails are female).
The New Mexico whiptail is also an F1 hybrid. If they go extinct, you can make more by hybridizing a little striped whiptail and a western whiptail. In case anyone thought that 'species' was a solidly defined word.
Genomic imprinting says no. It wouldn't produce a fetus that is in congruence with the possibility of life. It could at most start growing and developing, but it would die in the womb. More akin to a tumor than to a baby.

Here is a paper from 2007 that talks about parthenogenesis in hammerhead sharks..

Wasn't this also like the inciting incident for the original jurassic park movie?
Nah.
That one was dinosaurs changed gender to male, citing the frog DNA they completed the chain with as having that potential.
So what was supposed to be an all-female park to prevent reproduction became co-ed and then nature happened.
I'm still confused on the difference
Edit: thank you to everyone who replied, I understand the difference now
Jurassic Park’s version is still sexual reproduction. Parthenogenesis is a form of asexual reproduction.
Parthenogenesis - egg just becomes embryo, no male required
Jurassic Park - one individual turned from female to male and started making babies
One was direct development of an egg into an embryo, the other was conversion of an animal from one sex to another to facilitate mating.
Man so jesus was real

How comes it's possible for a bird or a fish, but not a human? If this article explains why, it is a bit obscure for non specialists.
No worries the whole concept of parthenogenesis is a really obscure and obtuse one.
Here's a SciShow link that does a really good job of describing it in a less obtuse and confusing way.
Good to know. Didn't expect a serious reply
And with our votes combined, we will push this good scoop to the top! Thanks, friend!
Life, uh, finds a way.

NO WAY IT'S ON THE SAME ISLAND I LIVE ON
One of the three wise men is among us! He's seen the signs. Now he must go bearing cans of tuna and gold doubloons.
It's only shark Jesus if the baby is male, because that would be a miracle. If the baby is female, it's just parthenogenesis
So we need to rebuild the Parthenon?
“All female shark tank” is my new band name.
Coming soon on ABC!

I've been wondering, what are midichlorians?
I've heard legends of a taco made entirely out of dorito
It's most likely a she-shark, not a he-shark.
I'm not proud to say that if this implied movie gets made, I'm going to go see it.
Alright who fucked the shark
Owner has some explanations to do.
What? I have already told you that I love sharks from the beginning!
I'd like a DNA test to confirm they aren't half human.
Amen. He had returned
