Question, do you believe its possible the megladon survives today? Or extinct? Saw a fascinating video the other day on this...
Pog dog
My cat just pulled a looney tunes half gainer. If you know of Fred and Foghorn Leghorn (the dog and roster) she grabbed the string and took off, hit the end of the length the string stretched to and did a half gainer like Fred would do in the cartoon.
About the Megalodon. 95 percent sure it's extinct.
@Dr Badass PhD well not to put too fine a point but we've explored roughly 5% of the world's oceans. On top of that, we are STILL finding and cataloging new species (mostly insects) on DRY land...
True but...
With dry land we've explored much more thoroughly
We still have trouble getting images of the giant squid, and the mega squid
And are alive today
And there is evidence that suggests a very large predator roams the ocean. With us fishing out the competition (other sharks) we've seen the resurgence of several thought extinct species (the salt water sea snake to name one)
I mean we found the kraken, which was a myth!
Kraken is the mega squid
I dont know, just saying that saying you can't find your keys with a glance doesn't mean they aren't in the room
Also I cite the theory of dark matter. When it was proposed, scientists laughed at the dude. Guess who's laughing now?
That predator is clearly Godzilla <:troll_face:726878856585281557>
If there was a large population of the predators in question, they would be easy-ish to find. But we said the same thing about the large species of squid too
But if the megladon still did exist I'd be willing to bet their population was kept small via competing predators like sperm whales and great whites
And orcas
But we humans have done a number on each of those species...
Idk like I said it was an interesting video
@Dr Badass PhD you're probably right to be honest. As the big stickler is the feeding habits would have likely been noticed.
That doesn't mean something like it doesn't exist. (Maybe in the very deep ocean). But as it was? Highly doubt it.
Or the arctic under the icecap
There's still the hunt for the snake larger than most anaconda responsible for the 60'+ shed skins found in the amazon
We've found the skins but never the animal that left them
Personally though coming face to face with a 60' constrictor would require serious intestinal fortitude
And we've found at least half a dozen dinosaurs that are still around in the oceans
