"We'd likely see far fewer whales, dolphins, and seals in the ocean." Ecology doesn't quite work that way and is way more complex. The presence of apex predators usually indicates an hugely productive, biodiverse ecosystem. See Yellowstone National park as an example: the reintroduction of wolves decreased elk and coyote populations but increased populations of many other species from plants to beavers to other large mammals. If anything, we may see MORE variation in prey/sea life due to the Leviathan's existence as species evolve to survive the new threat. Baleen whales would probably grow BIGGER or MORE numerous. The rate of reproduction of seals and dolphins would likely INCREASE. Life finds a way, and the intense predation pressure from leviathan would probably lead to a more diverse, epically sized, etc. global ocean. That is if Leviathan preyed on these animals at all. Like sperm whales, its quite possible that these guys were epic deep sea squid hunters. We don't know a ton about them and to assume they were ravenous giant whale killers is probably a bit hasty. Also, mankind would've spread across the world more or less the same way and probably would've been the end of Leviathan if it posed too much of a threat. We annihilate anything that gets in our way, from the 20' man-eating lizard megalania in Australia to the biggest bear ever (American Short Faced Bear). If these things did mess with us, they'd be toast... maybe not until the Bronze Age, but eventually. Just a random commenter's thoughts. Great video and question to mull over!
Thank you for that input. Curious thought on its diet. From what I understood (not from this video) they have found damage to prehistoric whales that match the teeth of this predator, which is how they managed to deduce that Livy and Meg (cute nicknames, right?) hunted the same prey; though it doesn't mean it didn't prey on squids.
War Robots_YT No. You should leave I have other things to do and I don't care about your opinion. If I asked a question because I am curious about it, then it is not your concern and you should'nt be toxic about it .
Not to mention that this creature was an air breather, making it far more likely to be seen. If there really were a dinosaur swimming the Loch Ness, it would be a common sight as aquatic dinosaurs breathed air.
I would Imagine whaling would've stuck around for another century. Those things are massive and the amount of oil they'd get out of it could probably power a city of the time. On the other hand, they'd probably shrink in size as well, to accommodate with the smaller and fewer prey it consumed. Naturally evolving with the times, or going extinct that Megalodon. I would also imagine that traveling across the ocean would be far more dangerous since Levyatan could mistake a ship for its prey. Just like how a shark can confuse a surfer for a seal.
If they lived around Peru, how would they come in contact with Vikings and Inuit? Granted, it's range was probably larger than the fossils that have been discovered, but it's a pretty big leap to assume they ranged all the way to the northern atlantic ocean where the Vikings were kicking around.
What if the levyten faught megalodon. Edit: OH MY GOD I HAVE 200 like :D yay thanks for liking this people Edit again: thanks for 300 and something likes
dgtherealog dgtherealog its impossible for a creature of that size to survive today, and its a whale, it would have had to surface, meaning that someone must have seen it
Such gaiant creatures can't live in the deep, there isn't enough food for them And even if they could, their bodies would float up when they are dying, like Gaiant and Collosal squids
@@jesusramirezromo2037 thats a pretty common misconception, theres a phenomena that occurs called deep sea giganticism. The deeper you go in the ocean, the larger animals tend to be. This is because there is an abundance of prey and a shortage of predators in the deep sea. This leads to certain species of sharks to be larger than average, like the grey shark. And giant squids, and giant crabs also live in the deep. Animals in the deep sea also become use to not eating very frequently, so most animals can survive for months without food down there, and some animals dont have a lifespan, they just regenerate. Like many species of starfish and lobsters! :)
The Blaze no these animals go down deep deep of the ocean but they can't come up becuase of this complete ice area so they are basically stuck st the bottom of the ocean
That is something that is popular. I’ll give you the end result, humans will separate. The Middle East and Israel will have a bloody war. And the US and Russia will not allow this
@fmoa No. Because Megalodon has the strongest bite force ever So tooth size is irrelevant. Lyviathan is smaller than Megalodon. Orcas are BIGGER than most sharks. This comparaison is irrelevant. If the Great White was bigger than orcas he d win. Also orcas go in pods. Unlike the Lyviathan.
An interesting thought would be, what would modern T Rexes look like? they became extinct millions of years ago so if they hadn't as apex predators would they have remained largely unchanged or would they have evolved to look very different to the Rexes of the period.
Bruce Jedi Lee the rest of the dinosaurs would haven't gone extinct, since t.rex was one of the first carnivorous dinosaurs to go extinct in the K-T extinction event
Keaton Jones Quite a few of Australia’s more, ah, exciting species of megafauna were still around when the first Aboriginals showed up in Australia, Megalania included.
They would go extinct within 2 centuries when whities come. Also drop bears in the form of Thylacoleo carnifex would not be fictional tall tales but real major nuiscences
It could have done a lot more than you suggested. It could drastically change the course of North American history, if Leif Erickson never came to America in fear of it. Maybe the pilgrims wouldn't have even traveled on the Mayflower. Maybe Christopher Columbus would have never 'sailed the ocean blue' in 1492.
The Prism Star wouldn't have changed anything. There were always legends of ocean monsters including sea serpents, krakens and giants that never stopped voyagers

No u wouldnt, think this that whale is 30+ meters in lenght and teeths as long as machetes and its probally aggressive, so yeah u wouldnt have a whale designed to hunt and kill in the ocean.
Hermann Fegelein The master of antics Man, I believe we would be asking 'what happened if the Allies got to the bomb first' and your picture would be of Winston Churchill lol. There's this show on Amazon and I forget the name but its based on that exact premise. The Axis Divvied North America with one coast controlled by Japan and the other Germany, with a sort of chaotic neutral zone in the middle where blacks are mostly due to segregation still poppin. Naturally Japan and Germany are trying to overtake one another. Any way this message got longer than I thought it would and I realize now that it would've been much quicker just to Google the shows name for you.
xcaluhbration Well I believe the Allies would still be able to to handle the Axis if the bomb was dropped. Germany would probably drop the bomb on Russia. However America and England might be able to fight Germany off depending on the rate Germany was making their bombs.

Because Megalodon has the strongest bite force ever
So tooth size is irrelevant.

Orcas are BIGGER than most sharks.
This comparaison is irrelevant.
If the Great White was bigger than orcas he d win.
Also orcas go in pods. Unlike the Lyviathan.
@fmoa Sharks are no easy snack, they always hunt them in pod. There is no single video of shark vs orca solo. You have no evidence
