Megalodons and Apex Predators:
Some people think that these things still exist, which is a lot like a vague unbelief in Earth being the only life-sustaining planet in the universe. It's like, yeah, I'm never going to be able to know what's in every drop of the ocean, so sure: gargantuan sharks, whales the size of the Empire State building, a kind of brine shrimp that cures prostate cancer. I'm not going to say these things aren't lurking in the deepest waters of the Atlantic, because I just don't know.
Sharks are apex predators, which are animals that aren't preyed upon as healthy adults. In other words, the top of the food chain. Wikipedia has lists of apex predators based on habitat. Here are some land-based ones:
And I got these golds up in my mouth. If you get closer to my house, then you know what I'm talkin' 'bout. I'm out the hood.
Seriously, though. Maybe I'm not in on the joke, but how hood is this girl?
