What is the Biggest Animal in the World EVER
7. Kronosaurus The Kronosaurus used to be known as the largest pliosaur to ever exist until it was knocked off its throne by the later discovery of the Pliosaurus. But the new find doesn’t make the Kronosaurus any less extraordinary. This particular species of pliosaur was 30-35 feet in length and weighed in at 30,000-40,000 pounds. The ancient creature was named after the Greek mythological figure Cronus, the King of the Titans who devoured his own children.
6. Palaeoloxodon Namadicus The Paracerathium is probably lucky that the Palaeoloxodon namadicus, aka the Asian straight-tusked elephant, wasn’t any bigger than what it was. Otherwise, it would have lost its title as the largest land mammal in existence. Actually, the Palaeoloxodon namadicus may have been bigger. At the shoulder, this giant elephant was 16 feet tall and measured in at 48,000 pounds.
5. Shastasaurus While the Liopleurodon is erroneously branded as the largest known marine reptile on many scientific news sites, the true champion is the Shastasaurus. It was over twice as long as the Liopleurodon at 68 feet and clocked in at 80,000 pounds; it was about the same size as a modern sperm whale. Because the reptile was so huge, it could plunge into the deep depths of the ocean. Its size also allowed it to take in a larger amount of air and stay down underwater more than a smaller ichthyosaur.
4. Megalodon The Megalodon holds the record for being the largest shark ever, as well as being one of the largest vertebrate predators ever. A Megalodon weighed 30 times more than a great white shark. The shark was 52 ft in length and was anywhere between 140,000 to 200,000 pounds.
3. Spinosaurus If you’ve seen Jurassic Park 3, then you’ve seen the Spinosaurus before. And if you couldn’t already glean it from the movie, the Spinosaurus was huge, larger than a T-Rex. It was the largest carnivorous dinosaur in existence. It extended 60 feet in length and weighed 200,000 pounds. In fact, its head alone was six feet in length.
2. Argentinosaurus The Argentinosaurus was not only the largest land animal that has ever existed, it was also the longest. It was easily the king of the sauropods. An adult had a height of 24 feet and could weigh up to 224,000 pounds. It’s probably safe to assume that carnivorous dinosaurs would steer clear of this behemoth. However, eggs were about the size of a coconut and only weighed five pounds, so young Argentinosauruses had plenty of growing to do during puberty and after puberty.
1. Blue Whale If you thought any of the other creatures on this list were massive, prepare to meet the largest of them all, not only today but in all of history: the blue whale. This aquatic animal surpasses all other creatures when it comes to size and length. Blue whales are generally anywhere from 70 to 90 feet long, but there are some cases of whales with a reported length of over 100 feet.

Biggest Sea Creature That Ever Lives In The World Giant Stingray What grew 17 feet across, had a 10 inch poison spike in its tail and was strong enough to drag a boat filled with people? In this case, a prehistoric super-fish that is still lurking around in fresh and brackish waters from the Mekong river to northern Australia. Stingrays have been around since a few million years after the dinosaurs died out, and have proven to be a successful design, much like the sharks they descended from. Livyatan melvillei Remember me mentioning “hypercarnivorous” whales? Well here it is. Imagine a cross between an orca and a sperm whale. Livyatan melvillei was a whale that ate other whales. It had the largest teeth of any animal to ever use their teeth to eat (elephant tusks are bigger, but they just look impressive and help them smash things; they don’t eat with them) topping out at 1.18 feet. They lived in the same oceans and ate the same food as the Megalodon, so this whale actually had to compete with the largest predatory shark ever. Helicoprion These sharks grew to be about 15 feet long, and had a lower jaw that was made of a “tooth whorl”. It looks like a cross between a circular saw and a shark, and when you mix apex predators with power tools, the world quakes in fear. Helicoprion’s teeth were serrated, implying that they were definitely carnivores, but there is some debate as to whether their teeth were in the front of the mouth, as shown in the picture, or if they were farther back, which would suggest a softer diet, like jellyfish. Kronosaurus Kronosaurus is another short-necked pliosaur (like Liopleurodon up at number 9), and like Liopleurodon, its overall length has been contested. It was a “mere” 30 feet long and the longest teeth in its massive mouth were up to 11 inches long. This is why it was named after Cronus, the king of the old Greek Titans. Dunkleosteus Dunkleosteus was a 30 foot long carnivorous tank. It was outlasted by sharks, but I am sure that is small consolation for the variety of creatures this beast ate. Instead of teeth, it had bony ridges, like a turtle. It has been calculated that they had a bite force of 8,000 pounds per square inch, putting it on par with crocodiles and T-Rex in terms of being history’s strongest biters. They also believe, based on the evidence in the skull regarding its musculature, that it could have opened its mouth in one fiftieth of a second, meaning it vacuumed food into its guillotine of a mouth. Mauisaurus Mauisaurus was named after the Maori god Maui, who pulled the islands of New Zealand up from the sea floor with a fish hook, so already you know this thing is going to be enormous. The neck of Mauisaurus measured up to 49 feet long; the longest proportionate (and really, “actual”) neck of any living thing aside from some sauropod dinosaurs. Their overall length was about 66 feet, and that ridiculously long neck had plenty of vertebrae, implying that it was flexible. Imagine a snake strung through a sea turtle with no shell, and you have an approximate idea of what this thing looked like. Basilosaurus Despite the name and appearance, that is not a reptile, but actually a whale (and not even the most fearsome on the list!) Basilosaurs were predatory ancestors of modern whales, and could be 50 to 85 feet long! It is described as being the closest a whale has ever come to being a snake because of how long and sinuous it was. Imagine swimming in the ocean with an 80+ foot long alligator-snake-whale. Now imagine being afraid to even take a bath ever again. #seamonster #seacreatures #deepseacreatures #largestanimalintheworld #largestwhale #biggestanimalever #biggestocean #bluewhaleweight #oceancreatures #seadinosaurs #weirdseacreatures #biggestwhaleever #realseamonsters #scaryseacreatures #biggestoceanintheworld #whatisthebiggestwhale #biggestseacreature #deepoceancreatures #GiantStingray #Livyatanmelvillei #Helicoprion #Kronosaurus #Dunkleosteus #Mauisaurus #Basilosaurus https://youtu.be/yMrBxBM08Jo
