In the light of new fossil discoveries and advances vertebrae research the estitimate of 30+m is considered inaccurate.source: wikipedia actually the largest recorded individual whale shark was about 12-13 metres in length and there’s no evidence to prove that 25m whale sharks exists thus being photographed or seen, unless you’ve been hearing those ‘fishermen stories’.

As the Ice Age began the sea temperatures plumetted and poor megalodon couldn't adapt with the changes. This was also the time when whales became migtratrory and escaped near to the poles where the shark could not follow. In the end Megalodon might had eaten its way out of existence.

I would not like to meet Mr. Meg under any circumstances as I kind of know what the out come would be. Either I would be a light snack or he would ignore me as too small to bother with after which I would have to buy a new wet suit after soiling the one I was wearing. BTW, It became extinct due to climactic changes killing off it's food sources and changing its living environment. To even consider that Megs exist today is sophomoric at best. Seen any t rexes lately?
