dragonlady_mothman Posted May 6, 2005 #77 Share Posted May 6, 2005 i heard somewhere that Meg was a relatively shallow-water critter and if its moved into deeper oceans and changed its diet, its no longer meg. if it stayed in the shallows...well, we've all heard the, "We havent found one yet, so it must not exist" argument on everything else discussed on this board...

Mad Manfred Posted May 6, 2005 #78 Share Posted May 6, 2005 I actually never thought of that. Megalodon WAS a shallow water shark. If it IS alive then its a deep water creature now... But is 10,000 years really enough time for such a drastic change? Now I'm not too sure that they're still in existence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonlady_mothman Posted May 6, 2005 #81 Share Posted May 6, 2005 i posted several when i first came on here, and a few teeth. you arent going to get a photograph, so how accurate they were... Meg: Primal Waters has an awesome flashback seen. an ice age island tribe thingy ive never heard about worshipped sharks. sharks were gifts, sustenence sent from the deep they knew there was a shark king somewhere, whose giant teeth washed up on the beach. they met their maker.

marduk Posted May 6, 2005 #83 Share Posted May 6, 2005 i wanna find these books lol 608860[/snapback] The books are all available from amazon, or from the authors homepage as mentioned in the first post in this thread. There is no evidence that I am aware of that the meg is a shallow water shark. That sounds like a fact from one of the books which is fiction the pictures of the meg are all showing it has white skin and is an albino funny that same as the one in the books we have no idea what colour they were as all we have is their teeth there is no megalodon in captivity there was no megalodon caught by a fishing boat there is no great white in captivity either people have tried and they just die they think the main reason is because the great white like the megalodon is an ocean going shark. it wont live in a cage It needs personal space hehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conspiracy Posted May 6, 2005 #84 Share Posted May 6, 2005 plus imagine how much money it be to feed a megalodon? be like feeding it a elephant weekly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Megalodon Posted May 7, 2005 Author #85 Share Posted May 7, 2005 great whites need bigger tanks and more in them to give some sort look of their real home if they want to kept them in captivity for longer then a few days to a few months Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marduk Posted May 7, 2005 #86 Share Posted May 7, 2005 great whites need bigger tanks and more in them to give some sort look of their real home if they want to kept them in captivity for longer then a few days to a few months 609247[/snapback] Despite your name you seem remarkably badly informed about great whites they are ocean going sharks they cover hundreds of miles in a week looking for food you gonna find someone with a fishtank hundreds of miles wide. there are a few on the earth's surface we call them oceans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conspiracy Posted May 7, 2005 #88 Share Posted May 7, 2005 hmmm maybe Megalodon was always a deep sea dwelling shark, but the whales it hunted or w/e would come closer to shorelines so megalodon would follow to feed, now megalodon probably feeds off deep sea dwelling creatures such as collasol octapus's, giant squids, and other creates we havnt discovered yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonlady_mothman Posted May 7, 2005 #89 Share Posted May 7, 2005 mighta been someone on here, but another pleasant thought is if egg-laying sharks lay their eggs in the shallows...whay if we're finding teeth of pups? great whites cant be kept in captivity, i hear, because they sense the metal and electric currents in the tank, and bang their heads against the walls trying to get to it.

Megalodon Posted May 8, 2005 Author #90 Share Posted May 8, 2005 That was only with one shark because their ampullae of lorenzini went off ( and that's also why some sharks have been known to attack boats) and marduk their are lots of animals that are ocean swimmers such as orcas, but then again their not held in captivity or taught to do tricks are they and they usually hunt and travel in pods while in captivity their is only 1 or 2. Changes can be made, after everthing we have achieved on this planet you think a small thing like GW's need their own personal space would stop us and don't say anything like orcas aren't predators becuase they have been known to KILL GWs. Also most GWs travel about a few hundred miles everyday but , so yeah yeah i know know nothing on GWS aye you should be an expert on them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Megalodon Posted May 8, 2005 Author #92 Share Posted May 8, 2005 thanks, and yeah the pic looks fake but pretty well done i think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conspiracy Posted May 8, 2005 #93 Share Posted May 8, 2005 either way a megalodon would never be able to live in captivity, even if they do manage to get a great white itll never happen for a Meg for many reasons like the tank would have to be huge, and feeding a meg would be god damn expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonlady_mothman Posted May 8, 2005 #94 Share Posted May 8, 2005 ampulae of Lorenzini (sp?) are neat litle things. i heard about a guy who will reach his hand off the side of the boat and feel the shark's nose to mess with those little jelly-filled buggers. The shark kinda goes, "...huh?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
