An example of a gravitational lens found in the DESI Legacy Surveys data. There are four sets of lensed images in DESI-090.9854-35.9683, corresponding to four distinct background galaxies — from the outermost giant red arc to the innermost bright blue arc, arranged in four concentric circles. All of them are gravitationally warped — or lensed — by the orange galaxy at the very center.

A team of Princeton researchers has now discovered clear evidence that Megalodon and some of its ancestors were at the very highest rung of the prehistoric food chain – the highest “trophic level.” Indeed, their trophic signature is so high that they must have eaten other predators and predators-of-predators in complicated food web, say the researchers. Harry Maisch of Florida Gulf Coast University, whose hand is holding this Megalodon tooth, gathered many of the samples used in this analysis and is a co-author on the new paper in Science Advances.

What did Megalodon eat? Anything it wanted

Fernanda, the only known living Fernandina giant tortoise (Chelonoidis phantasticus, or “fantastic giant tortoise”), now lives at the Galápagos National Park's Giant Tortoise Breeding Center on Santa Cruz Island. Fernanda, named after her Fernandina Island home, is the first of her species identified in more than a century. Princeton geneticist Stephen Gaughran successfully extracted DNA from a specimen collected from the same island more than a century ago and confirmed that Fernanda and the museum specimen are members of the same species and genetically distinct from all other Galápagos tortoises.
