According to a new study, the white shark has the most deadly and frightening bite of any existing species. Researchers assessed that the bite force of its extinct cousin between 10.8 to 18.2 tones, the gigantic fossil species Carcharodon megalodon (Big Tooth) is the biggest of all time, creating it the most dangerous carnivore yet on earth.
The deadly shark may grow up to 16 meters in length and weighed up to 100 tones.
Fossil proof said that Big Tooth was a powerful killer of large whales and stopped its big prey by biting off their tail and flippers. A comparison of Tyrannosaurus rex with Big Tooth reveals that the great lizard has no similarity with the giant shark.

Filed Under World News | Posted By Jennifer Sullivan | Leave a Comment
Scientists have discovered a lost world in Antarctica, which they claim is preserved exactly the same way when it was frozen some 14 million years ago.
Scientists have found fossils of plants and animals in the mountains on the interior of Antarctica, which it believes became extinct due to an abrupt climate cooling of 8 degree Celsius in 200,000 years.
In their study, the scientists have combined evidence from glaciers from the preserved ecology, volcanic ashes and modelling to reveal the full extent of the big freeze in part of the southernmost continent called the Dry Valleys.
According to scientists, the lost world is difficult to find in the continent.
