10ft shark mauled by 20ft behemoth

Just to put things in perspective a little BUT if you liked Jaws, you might also enjoy.... Highly amusing if you're a biologist Not as bad as this orthis. Anyone seen this beauty? I'm wondering if it's worth the rental just for the laughs....

Poor sharky .... that's some bad hat Harry .... sorry couldn't resist

IMO the most dangerous sea creature is the "Box Jellyfish". So small you can barely see them but they can kill you with just one touch. Furthermore there are zillions of them and populations are growing. At least you can see a shark coming most of the time.

Maybe not the most dangerous creature, but death by shark is certainly more dramatic.

Mattshark must have been really hungry that day.
