Far from perfect but vastly better than most videos featuring Megalodon. Loved the Eorhincodon inclusion since it's very hard to find size estimation even online, though in my opinion the olive green color is most likely off, if I was to guess I'd say it was transitional between a modern Whale Shark and it's closest living relative, baby zebra sharks (babies tend to be morphologically more basal than their adults and in this specific case on can see how juveniles' zebra-pattern is more similar to whale shark's nightsky pattern than adult zebra sharks' cheetah-like pattern).

Dogs use their noses, cats use their whiskers, sharks use their mouths. They'll take a quick bite then they'll swim around you then most likely swim off.

I still remember the guy in Maine that jumped in the harbor to study a greenland shark everyone said was there. It was just “doodoodoo” while he measured it and then disappeared into the fog of the water and as he was going back to the dock it sped by his head and he paused and confessed “I always thought these sharks were slow and docile, if it wanted me it could have me and I would be powerless.” Think it was the same documentary where they uncovered they skin animals with their teeth in a corkscrew pattern, like skinning an apple or orange in one go.

@@kyoswkyosw1216 It's terrifying when you think about it for a moment. I mean, many animals that experts believed were slow and docile turned out to have a rather scary side. For example, many people didn't believe the Slow Loris was a deadly predator until people saw it feeding on smaller vertebrates. People even believed sloths were lazy, docile animals. However there was a well documented report where a friendly dog ran up to a sloth and sniffed it where the sloth slashed the throat of the dog. Even when there's a newborn, female sloths are pretty fast and chase after would-be predators. There's a video on KZbin where a person tried to check up on the newborn sloth and the mother kept chasing them around and she was not moving at a slow pace either she was actively going after them.

I’m bored, so here are fun facts about sharks: -The small scales on sharks are known as “Denticles”. They are very sharp, and different species denticles look very different to one another under microscopes. -The top 4 most dangerous sharks, based off attacks on people, are the great white, the tiger, the bull, and the oceanic whitetip Shark. -tiger sharks have been found with things such as pillows, armour, number plates, and even land animal remains, likely thrown in by boats. -there have only been a few megamouth sharks ever washed up, and one is at the Fremantle Maratime Museum in Western Australia. I have seen it lots of times myself. -many scientists think that the bull Shark is more dangerous than the great white, because they live close to shore, near humans, and in murky water, where it is very difficult to see them. They usually escape unseen after attacks. -tiger sharks and sand tiger sharks are not related. The great white is closer related to the sand tiger Shark than the actual tiger shark. Funny coincidence, huh? -only 6 known species live dominantly in rivers. They are very rare. -the smallest Shark, the dwarf lantern shark, is the size of a banana, but the whale shark can grow up to 20 metres, the size of 2 school buses. -there have only been a few great whites successfully put in captivity, and survived. Most great whites die the first few days of captivity. -tiger sharks actually get bigger than great whites on average. -cookie cutter sharks take bites of things that are very small, like mackerel, but also massive creatures like whales. They even bite underwater cables and SUBMARINES! -cookie cutter sharks are actually parasites, as they feed on living creatures, and they rarely die after attacks, just missing a bit of flesh. Anyways, that’s all for now, hope you enjoyed😊 Edit: I’m still bored, so I’ll try and name every shark I can- great white, tiger shark, bull shark, sand tiger, frilled shark, horn shark, wobbegong, epeualette, cookie cutter, lantern shark, basking shark, megamouth, shortfin mako, longfin mako, goblin shark, catshark, dogfish, sawshark, greenland, roughshark, salmon shark, porbeagle shark, six gill shark, sleeper shark, seven gill shark, spinner shark, dusky shark, reef shark (all types), great hammerhead, scalloped hammerhead, speartooth shark, crocodile shark, lemon shark, night shark, whale shark, bronze whaler, gummy shark, angleshark, port- Jackson shark, weasel shark, zebra shark, leopard shark, thresher shark, blue shark, and I’m done, I can’t think of any more.

amazing how the overall body shape of sharks has not really changed over the millions of years. and sad to see that so many are endangered and we all know the causes but yet do nothing to stop it. stopping it would not be that hard either but we let greed and politics get in the way. many of the sharks of the past were so beautiful as well.

Also it's be nice to see more tiger sharks, they were actually sort of diverse in the ancient past (species eaglesomi, aduncus, mayumbensis, ancestral latidens, maybe there's more...

That’s because of people giving extant animals common names. Binomial nomenclature is used on todays animal too. like the white rhino is Ceratotherium simum or humans having the name Homo sapien. It’s just more simple to have one globally used name for science rather than all the 100s of names used by everyday people like pumas are also called mountain lions, cougars, and panther, which can get confusing.

Everyone is familiar with the Megalodon, but I didn't realize there were so many other species of gigantic extinct sharks. Good thing some of those nasty looking giant extinct predators aren't still swimming in the oceans because I already have such an unhealthy (and unrealistic) fear of a shark attack that I don't like to go past waist deep in the ocean and if those beasts were in there, the only ocean I would see is through my car window while driving past! 😆 BTW, kudos to the creator of this great video.
