Let's dive deep into the ocean's mysteries and talk about a creature that's been both terrifying and fascinating people all across the globe: sharks. These large, swift, lethal, and enigmatic beings have ruled the deep seas for ages. Thanks to popular movies like "Jaws" and "The Meg," sharks, particularly the great white shark, have been cast as the main characters in tales of oceanic horror. Yet, even the formidable great white pales in comparison to one species: the Megalodon, an ancient predator believed to have been extinct for ages. Indeed, "Megalodon" means "Big Tooth," and it refers to the largest shark that ever roamed the Earth's seas and oceans. So, how big was this ancient shark? What was its life and demise like? And why does it captivate scientists so much?
