Everyone knows, or thinks they know, that Anomalocaris was the biggest animal in the Cambrian period - the "top dog" so to speak. But fragmentary fossils from China suggest that this terror of the early Paleozoic may very well have been dethroned. Meet Omnidens, an enormous lobopodian that could have grown to over one and a half metres long!

It's not unlikely that it could have been a large animal, there were certainly plenty of trilobites and radiodonts for it to feed on. For size, 1.5 - 2 meters is of course not unheard of for early arthropods, even if you set aside the giant sea scorpions like Jaekeloptyrus, there was a filter feeding radiodont called Aegirocassis that got even bigger than Omnidens though I suppose it did appear in the early ordovician.

​@@tigertoxins584 Of course You'd beat it, the poor thing was not fit to fight a Goliath with incomprehensibly smarter brains, enhanced limbs mobility and limbs fitting to use other objects as weapons. It probably didn't even have complex hunting strategies like using other limbs or wrapping around the victim, so the only things it would have would be weak. But why would You want to fight it in the first place? If it was still around today, I highly doubt it would be aggressive towards humans, since they're way out of it's league, but even if it was, the best it could do is a bite or two, so most of the time it would just move around looking for more fitting prey. It's also somewhat cute in a weird way, so having as much as a thought of fighting it is unacceptable and cruel.

Thought of one other hero Biologist William Beebe - whose books we read like crazy as teens. Besides being the first Biologist to descend to the deepest dive in a Bathysphere in the 1930s he did so many other amazing things. Following his Bathysphere dives, Beebe returned to the tropics and began to focus his study on the behavior of insects. Whilst hurrying to board ship for return he asked a fellow member to just dig up a bucket of earth to study. He opined that the animals found within that lump of dirt took more than a year to discover.

I first learned about this creature from wikipedia a few months ago; I've been waiting for so long to see someone talk about it! I never heard of this channel before but you have my subscription now! This animal is really fascinating; it's such a strange monster from a time of major "experimentation". I mean I guess, compared to a theropod dinosaur or a megalodon, this animal wouldn't be able to do much more than bite your finger off, but it's just so alien in appearance...really impressive creature. There's a lot we don't know still, but Omnidens probably takes the cake as my favorite animal overall. Wow. It's also worth noting that apparently spine-like fragments have been found near the mouth fossils, which may belong to the animal's frontal appendages. These were probably used mainly to help the animal feel around (it probably didn't have eyes) but they still add to the terrifying appearance.

The mouth part appears to be better for scraping algae like organisms off of rock faces, than for tearing flesh.

Pambdelurion, with near-identical mouthparts, has been found with possible arthropod remains within its digestive system.
