Description
Livyatan melvillei
Here is a drawing i did last night, depicting Livyatan melvillei, a giant extinct carnivourous whale, related to the modern sperm whale. It would have grown to some 17.5m long (57feet). It lived during the Miocence, around 12-13 million years ago, and would have been one of the oceans apex predators at the time. Based on its jaws, and two sets of 30cm teeth, Livyatan is considered a Hypercarnivore, and one of the largest predatory animals ever.
Oh, and a 30cm fossil tooth was found recently that probably belonged to a Livyatan sp., and it was found on the Melbourne coast.
