Got me a whale vertebrate fossil, got me a Megalodon tooth fossil, but I DO NOT have this amazing combination...

Can’t be verified authentic... cellfish...
Oh contraire mon ami!! As best as paleontologists can determine, ancient whales WERE the Megalodon's primary food source. Many fossilized whale vertebrae have bite marks in them. If one finds a cache of ancient whale fossils, they're also likely find a trove a Megalodon teeth right there.
Some fun facts about Megalodon (Megalodon Fun Facts)
This gigantic shark obviously required a massive amount of food and it’s been estimated an adult Megalodon may have had to consume over a ton of food per day to sustain itself. Fossil evidence points to the Megalodon preying on whales and other large marine mammals such as Sea Cows and Sea Lions.
Many fossil whale bones have been found with clear signs of large, bite marks made by teeth matching the Megalodon’s Other excavations have found Megalodon teeth lying next to the chewed remains of whales.
And one Cany and other Shark Week Fans should note...
Unless you believe a bunch of CGI, made up “evidence” and actors masquerading as scientists on the Discovery channel the Megalodon shark extinct around 2.6 million years ago. During this time, the Earth underwent significant climate changes which would have but significant pressures on the Megalodon. The Oceans cooled and sea levels dropped, and many large marine mammals which the Megalodon relied on for food disappeared during this approximate time.

Very funny Cellie...I’m not falling for it. Don’t fall for it Dom. Very very bad Cellie.?
I'm game Joe. Cellie forgets I've been over edumacated in Biology and Physiology....

OK Cellie, I'll "bite," pun totally intended. Not many of us know, but virtually all placental mammals with the EXCEPTION of humans, actually do have a bone in their penis, the os penis or baculum. This is true, go ahead and Google away. Even chimps and gorillas have them, as well as the common mouse. The blue whale's logs in at 6' long!! And yes, they have found some fossilized ones. AAMOF, the largest one ever discovered came from an extinct walrus species, was 4 ft long, and was sold for $8,000 to a Ripley's Believe It or Not museum.
Here's Tennessee Tuxedo's "member"...
Since sharks are not placental mammals, they do not have a baculum, but no matter there as sharks, like rays, do not have any bone, they are made of cartilage which does not fossilize. That's why there are no shark fossils other than teeth, which are made of dentin and can be fossilized. Any other questions???

Before someone says, "Show me your fossils, you fossil" here we go...
Here's my Megalodon tooth, along with another tooth fossil from a shark species unknown to me.
Here's a fossilized aquatic dinosaur tooth from a Monosaur...
And here's my fossilized whale backbone. The vertebrae was used to carve the Inuit on an ice floe. His face, along with the seal were carved from fossilized walrus ivory. NO CELL, no baculum here either...

Wrong Again... cellfish...
The lady doth protest too much methinks Cellie. They may "have wood," but wood isn't calcium phosphate. Go back to Google and try again, and no Speedo photos!!
