In this episode Matt talks to Paleontologist Ben Francischelli all about the Megalodon Shark and other extinct Seacreatures that were super predators living in the ocean only a few million years ago. Ben has spent countless hours searching for and cataloging various fossils of these extinct animals that were collected from some world famous fossil sites located locally in Port Phillip Bay.
