Fossils of a Giant Superpredator Found in Antarctica
Manage episode 479074735 series 2914294
You won’t believe what scientists just dug up in Antarctica. 🧊 They found fossils of a giant superpredator that ruled the seas millions of years ago — we’re talking bigger than a great white shark! This beast had massive teeth and probably snacked on anything that crossed its path. The craziest part? It lived in what used to be a warm, tropical ocean right where all that ice is now. Imagine something that fierce lurking under the waves back then. Stick around, because this discovery is wild and changes everything we thought we knew about ancient Antarctica!
