Sharks

Experts have discovered an "almost-complete" fossil of a 150-million-year-old shark in Germany, giving them a nearly unprecedented look into Earth's distant past.

Megalodon, the apex predator of the seas, was the largest shark to ever live, at nearly 60 feet in length. A recently published study suggests the massive shark reached its epic size because of oophagy: a kind of intrauterine cannibalism behavior.

A fatal shark attack is rare, according to a local shark expert.

Wayne McManus was out fishing north of the Gold Coast Seaway in Australia on Friday when his trawler was surrounded by hundreds of hungry sharks.

A surfer is expected to survive a shark attack off the coast of Oregon after suffering non-life-threatening injuries to his lower leg on Sunday, officials said.

Megalodons, the apex predator of the seas, may have gone extinct more than 3.5 million years ago, but experts may have discovered nurseries of the massive shark all around the world, according to a new study.

A newly discovered shark that lived 370 million years ago had some of its teeth hidden from its prey until they clamped down, according to a new study.
