Vulture Shark

Otodus kinodis

Otodus kinodis (Vulture Shark) is one of the largest sharks in the seas of the Vernean Cavern, females growing as large as 15 meters. Unlike their relative O. megalodon of which they share the ocean with, they do not hunt for most of their food, rather they use their large size to bully smaller predators off their meals. They are usually the first to arrive to carcasses and only the largest macropredators can hope to push them off of it.
