I just got done reading an article from a page I like on Facebook. The headline was, "Could there be Megaladons living at the bottom of the ocean." Now, for those who do not know what a Megaladon is; picture if you will, a Great White shark that is 3 times bigger than any known modern shark. Basically, thi thing is a freight train with teeth and a serious appetite. Some of the biggest Megaladon teeth ever found are roughly seventeen centimeters long. Compared to today's Great White's teeth.... WOW were talking huge. (yes that is a term of measurement)
These things were the apex predator of its day, and according to the article I read, these things only died out 1.6 million years ago, and so, this is why people ask such stupid questions. I say their questions are stupid because, even an amateur like me knows info like this points to a serious no about them still being alive.
When Megaladons were in the ocean, there was no other killer like it. This thing would eat whales for Christ's sake; that's right I said whales. So I say to the fools asking the question of; is this thing is still alive and well at the bottom of the ocean; I say.... don't be dumb. If this thing were alive it most definitely would not be hiding out at the bottom of the ocean. I mean, this thing could eat a school bus full of children. So anything that can do that... isn't going to hide at the bottom of the ocean.
These mother truckers will do whatever they want to do. If these things were alive, and they wanted to come onto the shore...they would. Nothing could stop them. So I know what I think; please comment your thoughts on this subject. I am very keen to see what is said. Take my people, and please make sure to follow my blog
Dear Chris,
ReplyDeleteI'm a little bit scared now! I'm afraid of sharks...so this creature sounds very frightening to me, but at the same time I love animals and I don't want to judge the animal as being frightening without meeting him...not that I would necessarily like to meet him right now...maybe when my fear is not as strong. But really, that's why I am afraid to swim far out in the ocean, because of my fear of sharks. So...you don't think the Megaladon is real...but do the people who do have proof? What makes them think this? Can they really eat whales? Oh my goodness...yes I feel scared. I would be very afraid if one were to eat a whale. I don't know what I would do...because I don't like killing at all,.. but are they natural carnivores? I just don't know...Chris this is so interesting! And, like always, your wit is brilliant: "WOW were talking huge. (yes that is a term of measurement)"
Thanks Chris!
Take care,
Emma
I love everything about this post: I love the image of this huge, terrifying animal, the crazy idea that they might be out there still, but most of all I love your voice. LOVE IT! You are such a hoot! You could write about any topic and it would be fun to read because you put your personal Chris-ness into it. As for the possibility that this giant shark might still be under the sea - what do the experts say? You are the research king, have you checked any peer reviewed resources on this? Hmmm. Jaws lives!
