Carcharodon megalodon |

Megalodon (full name Carcharodon megalodon)
was a gigantic prehistoric shark that
lived from the Miocene epoch to the Pleistocene
epoch, between about 18 million years ago, and 1.5 million years ago.
Megalodon is the largest carnivorous fish known. It could grow
to nearly 50 feet (15 meters) in length, and is thought to have
fed upon cetaceans (such as whales and dolphins),
sirenians (sea cows), and pinnipeds (semi-aquatic mammals such
as seals and sea lions).
A Megalodon tooth is today the State Fossil of
US
state of
Georgia.
