The ocean may be a scary place, but nothing is more terrifying than the giant creatures lurking under the sea. Some of the largest sea creatures has ever seen may lived millions of years ago. Here are list of the scariest prehistoric sea monsters to ever call the ocean home in prehistory.
Dunkleosteus
This ancient fish lived about 400 million years ago, but its bite has stood the test of time. Scientists have done some research and have crunched the numbers and they have determined that this fish could have bit down with a lot of force. In fact, scientists estimate it has a bite force of up to 8,000 pounds per square inch on its prey. They were absolute apex predators, preying on sharks and basically anything it could catch. Dunkleosteus was also 33 feet long from tooth to tail and covered in thick armor, making it one of the ocean’s first giant predators.
LiopleurodonThe Liopleurodon was a giant marine reptile and one of the fiercest predators of the Jurassic period. These massive sea monsters could grow up to 25 feet in length and had sizeable teeth that would have made a quick meal out of most marine life. Despite its size, scientists estimate this reptile probably swam surprisingly fast. Like many sharks, Liopleurodon had an excellent sense of smell, which it used to locate prey. Despite needing to breath air, they spent its entire life at sea and was unable to leave the water.
