Megalodon 巨齒鯊

The megalodon, which became extinct滅絕 millions百萬 of years ago, was the world's 
biggest shark and one of the largest fish ever recorded記錄. 

Otodus耳齒鯊 megalodon means "giant巨大 tooth," and with good reason: 
its huge巨大 teeth are nearly幾乎 three times larger than those of a current當前 
great white shark.  

The preserved保留 bones and teeth of the megalodon shark provide提供 
scientists科學家 with important重要 information信息 about what the monster怪物 
was like and when it died.

While the blockbuster轟動 2018 film "The Meg" sets modern people against對立 
massive大量 megalodon sharks, the beast most likely可能 died out before humans 
even existed存在. 

However然而, because the fossil record is sparse稀疏, pinpointing精確
 the precise精確 year when the megalodon went extinct is challenging挑戰性的. 

 In 2014, a team of researchers研究人員 from the University of Zurich蘇黎世
 used optimum最佳 linear線性 estimate估計 to calculate計算 the age of
 megalodon fossils化石. 

 A relatively相對地 tiny微小 fraction部分 of the Zurich study's data數據 — 6 out of 10,000 
simulations模擬 — indicated表明 that there was a 1% probability可能性 
that these massive sharks were still alive活着. 

That likelihood可能性 appears出現 to be minimal最小, and the researchers concluded推斷 in their report that they disregarded不理會 "popular大衆的 claims主張 of present-day 
survival生存 of megalodon."

Scientists agree同意 that megalodon sharks are extinct since no recent最近 
proof證明 of the monster has been unearthed發掘 — not even fossils化石 younger than 2.6 million years old. 

Megalodon shark size: The megalodon was a massive beast, but it may not 
have been as large as you imagine想像.

 There are several一些 debates辯論 in the scientific科學 community團體 
over the size of Megalodon. 

According to the Natural History Museum (NHM) in London, some estimate估計 
the fish might grow up to 60 feet (18 meters) long based only on the size of its teeth, 
while others say it will be closer to 80 feet (25 meters) long, according to 
Encyclopedia百科全書 Britannica.大英百科全書 

Modern great white sharks can grow to be 20 feet long. 

The whale shark is much bigger, reaching到達 32 feet (9.7 m).

According to the Florida Museum of Natural History, the longest bony骨的 
fish living is the gigantic巨大 oarfish皇帶魚 , which has been recorded to reach 
up to 36 feet (11 m).

The biggest megalodon tooth is around 7 inches (17.8 cm) long, over three 
times longer than those of great white sharks.

Because of the animals' enormous龐大 size, ancient peoples speculated推測 
about their origins起源.
