In the Cambrian oceans about 100 million years ago, a super-ferocious predator lived. Although the name of the shrimp is under its banner, it is not a shrimp in the true sense of the word. As early as 1886, when some paleontologists discovered a small part of his fossils, they described him as a headless but downward-looking arthropod, some of which looked like our modern heroes, but looked very strange.
Later, in 1892, a Canadian paleontologist named it under its banner. He was the apex predator of his time, and he was only a year before the age of the dinosaurs.
The Qi family does not refer to a single species, and it has been found that there are as many as a dozen or so species in the family, at least more than 20 species. The Canadian Qi family is about one meter long, which is very different from other prehistoric giants, such as dinosaurs and dragons. Many people are surprised, with this body shape and weight, why can they still dominate the ocean at that time?
You may not know that in the Cambrian oceans at that time, other animals were only a few centimeters to a dozen centimeters in size, and they put their flags in front of them. Its Big Mac Qi is large enough to make it the most ferocious predator. In front of his mouth are two large claws, covered with barbs, making it impossible for his prey to escape his clutches.
The most striking feature of the banner is that it has a pair of large eyes, which is a special structure.
During the Cambrian period, many creatures were glassless, with eyes on patties on the sides of their heads, compound eyes similar to those of modern insects, and at least 16,000 hexagonal lenses per eye. This advantage is a great help for its visual attainment, and it is easier to observe the movement of the prey when hunting. Therefore, many sea creatures at that time would gradually evolve carapaces to arm themselves.
Because the size can't keep up, many of the prey of Qixia can only rely on equipment to defend themselves. Some people believe that it usually feeds on trilobites, and many of its bite marks have been found on many trilobite fossils, but because it has not been found that its fecal fossils contain trilobite substances, it has been questioned by many experts, but it is such a kind of marine overlord who cannot escape the extinction of nature More than 100 million years ago, the Qi family bid farewell to its hegemony forever, and nature will always abide by a law called natural selection, survival of the fittest.
With the emergence of other large predators, it will face unprecedented competition, food is becoming more and more scarce, its body size is gradually becoming smaller in the process of evolution, the gradual decline of a generation of overlords, unable to keep up with the evolution process of the times, and the environment may have changed at that time, its banner is forever disappeared in the ocean under multiple pressures, and new rulers have emerged, the more famous of which is the upcoming Cornerstone.

1.Cangsaurus Living in the Mesozoic Era, Cangsaurus was the strongest predator in the oceans at that time, and no animal could compete with it, 2Melville Whale 13 million years ago, Melville Whale is a large toothed whale that lives mainly in South American waters, and scientists speculate that this large creature has reached a body length of 17 meters, weighed 65 tons, and has a tooth length of 35 centimeters alone
Megalodon In prehistoric times, the Megalodon was not much different from the Melville whale, measuring 17-20 meters in length and weighing 70 tons.
-
Dragons, Melville whales, megalodons, Nagano whales, odd shrimps, dunkle fish, these were the overlords of the seas at that time.
-
Odd shrimp is the earliest marine overlord discovered by scientists, appearing in the Cambrian period hundreds of millions of years ago. Barramundi basically belongs to the same era as Dun's fish, and it was also a marine killer in the Devonian period.

The overlords of the seas are killer whales.
Killer whales belong to the dolphin family and are the ones that make great white sharks fearful. Killer whales are eight to ten meters long on average and weigh about nine tons, making them several times the size of great white sharks.
In addition, killer whales are the most social group of dolphins, preferring to live in groups of varying sizes. When rounding up great white sharks, they tend to divide up the group, with specific young whales distracting the prey, and then the strongest adult whale in the group sneaking up on the shark's lower abdomen while the prey is unprepared, so that the prey is captured.
Killer whale predation:
Killer whales eat an average of 45 kilograms of food per day, and can actually eat much more than that. They will swallow their small prey whole, but tend to shred larger prey before eating it. Food includes fish, other cetaceans, pinnipeds, sea otters, birds, reptiles, and cephalopods.
Of the 362 stomachs of killer whales collected in Antarctica, 217 contained fish, 75 contained remnants of minke whales, 35 contained pinnipeds, and 35 contained cephalopods.
Killer whales have brains and bodies that are so powerful that these highly intelligent animals are able to chase and kill many of the ocean's apex predators. They often hunt in groups and use coordinated social behavior and communication to hunt prey that is larger than themselves, such as large whales. Some killer whale family members have at least nine shark delicacies on their menus, including the great white shark and mako shark, which are feared by many animals.

I know this, O Lord of the Seas. Killer whales, humpback whales, bowhead whales, sperm whales, blue whales, giant spear squid. Tiger shark, great white shark. Giant octopus, blue-ringed octopus.
-
They are all absolute hegemons in the ocean, killer whales and megalodons face off, who will be more powerful?
-
Killer whales are known to be the most powerful, with blue whales, gray whales, seals and even great white sharks on his recipe.
Prey on great white sharks: Killer whales use their tails to drive sharks out of the water without even making physical contact with them. With the help of the upward force generated by their tails, they are able to create a whirlpool that places the shark on top of the current that forms as it moves.
Once the prey is above the surface, the killer whale turns its body and sticks its tail out of the water, and then attacks the shark like a palm slash in karate. After stunting the shark, the killer whale grabs the shark and flips it over. This is clearly an unbelievable strategy that shows that killer whales know their opponents very well.
After being quickly flipped upside down, the shark enters a paralyzed state, known as "muscle tone stagnation", and is left to the slaughter of the killer whale.
-
The bond between the sperm whale and the king squid, no sea creature can do anything about them. But it's more NB to count sperm whales according to wins. I want to say that those who say that killer whales are overlords, read more information about sperm whales, and then see for yourself if killer whales are comparable to sperm whales.

The only big predators in the ocean are killer whales and sharks, and the great white shark is the largest and most aggressive among the sharks. Film and television works often depict scenes of great white sharks eating people, but in fact, great white sharks play the role of food in front of killer whales. Great white sharks, males, m, t, females larger, largest m, t; Killer whales, males 7-9 meters, 6 tons, females 6-8 meters, 3-4 tons.
In terms of size, there is also a gap between lions and hyenas, not to mention that the IQ of killer whales is several levels higher. Moreover, killer whales mostly live in groups and hunt, which is much stronger than sharks fighting alone, so killer whales are well-deserved overlords of the ocean.
-
Killer whales must be the true overlords of the oceans.
-
There are still many unexplored marine creatures in the underwater world, and sharks are the overlords of the sea with few natural predators.
-
The animal is a whale, and the ** word is of course an aircraft carrier.
-
The current hegemon in the water is aircraft carriers.
-
Killer whales are the true overlords of the oceans.
-
There are too many, dragons, king squid, sperm whales, megalodons, giant spear squid, humpback whales, bowhead whales, great white sharks, bull sharks, killer whales, tiger sharks, Melville whales, dragon king whales. These are very powerful, and killer whales may not be, because the king, the giant spear squid, and the humpback whale have all beaten it.
-
Overlord of the sea.
In fact, everyone thinks that the overlord of the sea is killer whales, sharks, etc., but in fact, it is not, the real overlord of the sea is the "whale shark", which has sharper teeth than the great white shark, is more than 20 meters long, weighs more than 40 tons, and is a well-deserved overlord of the sea in the underwater world.
-
First place went to the Wilmel whale.
Second place went to the megalodon.
The third place is Fallen Dragon.
Fourth place went to Dun's fish.
Fifth place goes to the great white shark.
-
An aircraft carrier, whether it is a shark or a whale that hits it, will die.
-
A true overlord in the oceans of bull sharks.
-
The megalodon is the dominant shark of the seas.

When I was a child, I went on a business trip to Guangzhou with my queen mother, and there was a small shop at the door of the guest house where I lived, and the owner was a thin and tall old man, who seemed to be a local, and spoke Cantonese Mandarin, but he could still understand it if he spoke slowly. It was a very hot day, and the Queen Mother allowed me to eat a cold drink once a day. At that time, I especially liked the paper-wrapped chrysanthemum tea that was sold everywhere in Guangzhou, because I thought it could be drunk slowly for a long time, unlike sorbet, which would melt if you didn't eat it quickly. >>>More

When I first arrived in Xiamen, my friends talked about a certain leader at dinner, saying that he had recently fallen into the lake. I wondered if the leader was too careless when he walked, and just wanted to ask how people were doing, but suddenly reacted that he had been "transferred" to the lake - there is a district in Xiamen called Huli District.
