"Revealing the True Shape of Megalodons: New Study Challenges Previous Beliefs"

A new study comparing the bones of a great white shark to fossilized vertebrae of the ancient Megalodon suggests that the ancient apex predators may have been longer and more slender than previously believed. This finding could force a reevaluation of how the Megalodon lived and hunted, with implications for its impact on the marine food chain and its eventual extinction. The study's authors propose that the Megalodon's body form was likely slimmer and longer than previously thought, potentially indicating a more expansive digestive canal and less disruptive feeding habits.
