Contrary to widespread assumptions, the largest shark that ever lived -- Otodus megalodon -- fed on marine creatures at various levels of the food pyramid and not just the top. Scientists analyzed the ...

Megatooth sharks like, Otodus megalodon, more commonly known as megalodon, lived between 23 and 3.6 million years ago in oceans around the globe and possibly reached as large as 20 metres in length.

A fossilized megalodon tooth has been recovered more than 10,000 feet below the surface of the central Pacific Ocean, marking the first time such a specimen has been found in place at this depth.

Research published in scientific journal PeerJ argues the huge creatures, which could grow up to 60 feet in length, died out about 3.6 million years ago, one million years earlier than previously ...

They gained fresh clues into how Otodus megalodon met its "vast" appetite through state-of-the-art analysis of zinc detected in fossilized teeth. Measuring up to 24 meters (80 feet), it was longer ...

Using zinc isotopes, researchers investigated the diet of megalodon, the largest shark to have ever lived. The diet of fossil extinct animals can hold clues to their lifestyle, behaviour, evolution ...
