Are megalodons a fascinating ancient creature?

You're actually scaring me man, I don't know if I want to go in the ocean now. I know it's unlikely a tursio would attack a human, but still, the thought of something that massive lurking in the depths is unsettling.

I think it's possible a smaller tursio could've bitten the whale, they've got to start somewhere, right.

Megalodons are massive predators with huge teeth, and it's no secret they can inflict serious damage on their prey.

On a more serious note, while it's possible they might still exist, their numbers would likely be extremely low. The ocean is incredibly vast, and we're still discovering new species and ecosystems within it.

It's entirely plausible that the tursio could thrive in deep water, beyond the reach of most fishing expeditions. I mean, what would you even use as bait to catch one - a large whale, a cow, or a massive haul of fish?

I saw a coelacanth in an aquarium, it was a real-life one, not just on TV.

I saw one in a public aquarium, but they had thought it was extinct for ages. They had loads of old fossils, so it made sense to think that. It wasn't till recently they found out it was still swimming around.
