Otodus sharks remain larger than any modern carnivorous fish, surpassing the largest recorded great white shark by one and a half times. However, this formidable size did not guarantee Otodus' sole dominance in its ecosystem, as it coexisted with other significant predators such as Basilosaurus, an eighteen-meter predatory whale bearing a striking resemblance to ancient mosasaurs. Nonetheless, Otodus possessed the strength and prowess to contend effectively with most adversaries in the prehistoric seas.
