Among the many behemoths in ancient times, The Leeds fish, like the megalodon shark, is a huge species, so from the size of the Liz fish and the megalodon shark who is big, the largest Leeds fish in history is how big, is not up to 27 meters in length, let's take a look at it.

Comparing the two in terms of body size, the length of the Leeds fish is generally about 10 meters, some of which can reach about 15 meters in length, and the giant figure of 27 meters long may be the imagination of some people.
Megalodon sharks are mostly between 15-20 meters long, larger, and much heavier than leeds fish, so megalodons are larger.

According to paleontologists, the maximum body length of the Leeds fish can reach 27 meters, but it may actually be smaller, normally more than 10 meters, but even so the body length is far greater than other fish.
Living between 165 million and 155 million years ago in the middle of the Jurassic Period, the Leeds fish is an extinct species of Pachycephalus fish, the largest teleost fish ever recorded and the largest fish on Earth.
According to scientific calculations, Leeds fish grow to 8 to 9 meters in the first 20 years of life, and can grow up to 27 meters long and weigh up to 40 tons in a lifespan of about 40 years.
The size of the Leeds fish is larger than the largest fish on the earth, the whale shark, the lifespan of the whale shark is about 70 years, which shows that the Leeds fish grows faster than the whale shark, so it is the largest fish ever.

Despite its large size, the Leeds fish is a "gentle giant" and does not feed on large whales like megalodons.
Leeds fish feed mainly on plankton, and its huge mouth acts as a vacuum cleaner, which can suck thousands of small fish, mainly small shrimp and jellyfish. The presence and extinction of leeds fish may be related to dramatic changes in marine plankton populations.
