Reaching lengths of up to approximately 79 feet (24 metres), Megalodon dominated the oceans for millions of years. The impressive size estimates of Megalodon are derived from the examination of hundreds of fossilised teeth, several vertebral columns, and a handful of individual vertebrae.

Specimens have been uncovered dating from the early Miocene Epoch, approximately 23 million years ago, through to the end of the Pliocene Epoch, about 3 million years ago. Megalodon possessed a jaw that spanned between 2.7 and 3.4 metres in width.

This massive jaw was lined with roughly 276 teeth, each suited for its predatory lifestyle. Appropriately, the name'Megalodon' translates to'giant tooth', highlighting its most distinctive feature.
