“ n our new study, we based our estimates on 3D modeling of the most complete specimen known, represented by a largely intact vertebral column held in a Belgian museum. We quantified its total length, weight, and the size of its gape from the complete digital model.”
Interesting speculation. There’s a lot of guesswork going into this model. The shark they used wasn’t fully complete so i would say good start but they need more Megalodons to help make a clearer picture.
Can you just imagine an exchange between Rodney Dangerfield and Don Rickles? Now THAT would’ve been epic!
