Description
The Megalodon shark holds the title of being considered one of THE MOST POWERFUL predators of ANY vertebrate that ever lived, land or sea!
From the Middle Miocene Period 15.9 million years ago to the Late Pliocene Period 2.6 million years ago, the ancient seas were terrorized by this beast. It is estimated that Megalodon could have easily reached 60 feet in length and weighed over 52 tons. Some researchers have stated lengths could have attained up to 80 feet! Fossil teeth have been found that exceed 7 inches in length. Teeth are measured on the longest diagonal distance from the outer edge of the root to the tip of the crown.
The first documented mention of Megalodon remains date back all the way to the mid-1600's when writings described the discovery of large triangular teeth weathering out of rocks. They were believed to be petrified tongues of dragons and giant snakes.
