Megalodon prehistoric shark
Megalodon prehistoric shark, artwork, hunting a school of fish. Megalodon, Carcharocles (Carcharodon) megalodon, lived between around 20 and 1.2 million years ago, and is known only from fossils. It was related to the modern great white shark, and possibly preyed mainly on whales. Megalodon was thought to attain lengths exceeding 20 metres, and possibly much larger. It is thought that it died out after the seas cooled, allowing warm-blooded whales to escape the sharks for much of the year by swimming to waters too cold for them to survive in

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the awe-inspiring Megalodon, a prehistoric shark that once ruled the ancient seas. In this stunning artwork, we witness the sheer power and dominance of this magnificent creature as it hunts down a school of fish. The Megalodon, scientifically known as Carcharocles (Carcharodon) megalodon, existed between 20 and 1.2 million years ago and is only known to us through fossils. Believed to be closely related to modern great white sharks, this colossal predator likely specialized in hunting whales for sustenance. With estimated lengths surpassing an astonishing 20 meters or possibly even larger, it was truly a behemoth of its time. As depicted in this illustration, the Megalodon's enormous size and formidable teeth make it an intimidating force underwater. Its demise is thought to have occurred when the oceans cooled down enough for warm-blooded whales to seek refuge in colder waters where these massive sharks couldn't survive. This image not only highlights the fascinating world of paleontology but also serves as a reminder of Earth's diverse history and evolution. The intricate details captured by Science Photo Library allow us to appreciate both the beauty and ferocity of this long-extinct giant carnivore.
