Megladon was known to travel into shallows in chase of its prey. It definitely does not exist in this world anymore. Seen the BC fossils though (On TV as they were being removed).

I think "Known" is a very relative term, I don't think the scientific community knows jack all about what Megaladon's did. How cna they? They have barely scratched the surface into Great White habits.

Agreed, science especially when it deals with things of the past is a constant process. "Knowledge" about past aeons, theories about ancient species, are constantly chnaged, modified, corrected, replaced. It is just some years ago until they dropped the theory that the Great White Shark is linked to the Megalodon. Today they say both are different species that developed parallel to each other (thus the changes in their Latin names).

But a fascinating field naval biology is, and naval geography and geology as well. In the late days of my schoolyears I even considered "Ozeanographie" as an option to study at university. but although I was interested in diving, I hated and still hate swimming , soooo... . I absolutely hate swimming. Totally. Completely. If somebody wants to nget rid of me he just needs to suggest that we go swimming. Some people go swimming, others leave and never come back.
