A remotely operated submarine is collecting samples in an unexplored deep-sea mountain when suddenly it discovers a rare megalodon tooth.
The following is the translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags: "The gold-colored teeth, measuring 2.7 inches (6.8 centimeters) in length, were found more than 10,000 feet (3,090 meters) below the surface near Johnston Atoll in the Pacific Remote Islands Marine National Monument, approximately 800 miles (1,300 kilometers) south of the Hawaiian Islands."
Researchers explained the discovery in a study published on December 14th in the journal Historical Biology. The Ocean Exploration Trust, which led the 2022 expedition that found the tooth, has now released a video detailing the event.
The discovery is an observation and sampling of the first megalodon tooth in situ in the deep sea, which means that researchers found the fossil in its original resting place. Most deep-sea fossils are collected by dragging nets along the seabed, which causes researchers to lose important information such as the exact location, according to a statement released by the Ocean Exploration Trust on January 4. Research collaborator, Nicolas Straube, an associate professor at the University Museum of Bergen in Norway, described the statement as "an extraordinary finding."
word Straube.
Megalodon (Otodus megalodon) is the largest shark that ever lived, growing up to at least 49 feet (15 m) in length and possibly reaching a length of 65 feet (20 m).
Giant predators have dominated the marine food chain since about 20 million years ago until they became extinct around 3.6 million years ago.
The translation of the given 'Bahasa' text to 'English' while preserving any HTML tags is as follows: "Tooth megalodon is a relatively common fossil — each megalodon has about 276 teeth, and they lived in oceans worldwide. However, most of these fossils are found on land near the coastline or river rather than in the deep sea, which is rarely explored, as mentioned in the statement."
Researchers on board the Ocean Exploration Trust's Nautilus explorer ship are collecting samples around Johnston Island in June 2022 to study deep-sea geology and biology. They are using a remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV) called Hercules to record and collect samples, which are then sent to the University of Rhode Island for processing. There, the researchers discovered the tooth in one of the samples and suspect that it originated from a megalodon.
Research assistant, Dave Ebert, a researcher at Moss Landing Marine Laboratories in California, then confirmed that the tooth originated from a megalodon.
After reviewing the video recorded by Hercules, the researchers also realized that the teeth were protruding from the sand at the top of the sea when the ROV was digging. Finding teeth in their original place on the seamount helps researchers understand more about the habits of the giant oceanic shark.
The first author, Jürgen Pollerspöck, a researcher at the Bavarian State Collection of Zoology in Germany, stated that.
