Who Was The Ancient Megalodon Shark Afraid Of?

One day, a nine-meter-long Miocene whale was swimming in the ancient ocean. Suddenly, it was attacked by a huge predator. The aggressor was twice as large as the whale and acted directly, not trying to reach the softer tissues of the stomach. It immediately sank its teeth into the rigid upper spine and rib cage. The powerful jaws closed with a force of about 20 tons, breaking the victim's huge skeleton. The whale didn't have a chance, with its lungs punctured and spine broken, it quickly became another prey for the prehistoric monster.
You're certainly wondering what kind of predator it was, how it lived, and what it ate. Does it live now and can it attack a human? The answers to these questions are not easy to find, but we did our best and made it for you. We have collected all the most important and interesting facts about this predator in this video. It was a giant ancient shark - Megalodon.
Megalodon.

I disagree with programmed fear. Great whites have left areas such as Africa because of killer whales. Not all great whites observe the killings, but instinctively, they know there is danger. This can be passed down to the young.

[@chicagopianou86]

I totally agree with you

[@Elite02k]

same things with lions and hippos. lions often will avoid hippos especially in large herds, even though they are the definition of "harmless looking". if hippos weighed 200lbs instead of 5,000, they'd be one of the most harmless creatures on the planet. but since they are literally walking and swimming diesel trucks, they easily take out creatures up to and including their own weight classes like rhinos, and safari vans.

[@deeespinal9666]

could just be as simple as the migrant situation. Parents who went thru ish, came to the US have kids, who to have kids, who never went thru any hell but raised to stay away from the hell.

For all we know its biggest fear was a pinky size fish that crawled up its butt

Very strange to see the video describe Livyatan as being 33 feet long and leave it at that. That would be a fairly small individual. A larger Livyatan would be nearly the same size as some of the larger Megalodon, at around 17 meters or more and weighing over 50 tons, perhaps well over. It would also be significantly faster, smarter, more agile, have better endurance at the sort of effort necessary in a fight between the two species, could ram another animal with its enormous head, and may even have been able to stun its enemies with the same sort of clicking today's sperm whales do. It's far more likely that an adult Megalodon would steer clear of an adult Liyvatan and prey on smaller whales and fish instead. You could describe this how you want, most would probably call it fear. Either way, it could do far more than "damage the fins and tail but no more."

Modern sharks are afraid of orcas.

[@rachelprighel4409]

Good question

[@user-b587]

Since megalodon is extinct, we don’t exactly know what it fears and avoids.

[@pumpkinpuna4087]

@16:47~~" modern sharks have no programmed fear of any predator" ME: ok if that's true then explain the video of the 2 Orca that killed the shark for its liver ?!! But better yet explain how these same 2 Orca knew that flipping a shark over put the shark into a paralyzed trance state. Yes sharks do have a fear of a predator...an orca aka the killer whale

[@vanhattfield8292]

You just provided an example of a Great White with no programmed fear. If this Great White had programmed fear of Orcas, it would have vacated the area when they arrived, which with it's very sensitive sense of smell it would have known well in advance, and they would not have been able to attack and kill it. A better example for you to have used would be the Great Whites found along the Southern tip of Africa, because these Great Whites DO vacate the area as soon as Orcas arrive, staying away for months and sometimes years, before returning.

[@cokemachine5510]

Probably the Orca equivalent

[@jaystreet46]

Megalodon most likely wouldn’t bother with us humans, we don’t have enough calories to justify it.

[@cher8005]

I wonder why they've decided to keep showing pics of nurse sharks throughout this video instead of providing more clips of great whites since megalodons are more closely related to this latter species? Also, modern sharks do show fear of predators, the orca in particular are regularly avoided by great whites.

[@diegoquezada3193]

Mako sharks are actually more closely related to Megalodons than Great Whites.

[@Bob-te3le]

Orcas are the real kings of the ocean.

[@SakuraSlowly]

Shortfin Mako Shark is the closest relative of the Meg not rhe grate white

[@vanhattfield8292]

Orcas have no fear of Great Whites. There is plenty of evidence that Great Whites vacate an area as soon as Orcas show up and sometimes will not return for months , or even years. Good job, trolling, though. 😂👍

[@erutis53]

Antarctica hasn't been covered in ice for millions of years lol

[@AngelRivera-wp9bg]

All speculative. Baleen whales if hold true to today’s whales and dolphins cooperate in packs. Example Orcas vs Great whiles.So predation on the weakest or lone whales was the most efficient kill.

Wouldnt it be funny if we discovered that megaladon was 3 feet long and had only one large tooth. And for all we know that might be true. We have found only a few teeth and nothing more.
