In 2020, Cooper and his colleagues reconstructed a 2D model of megalodon based on the dimensions of all the extant lamnid sharks and suggested that a 16 meters (52 ft) long megalodon would have had a 4.65 m (15.3 ft) long head, 1.41 m (4 ft 8 in) tall gill slits, a 1.62 m (5 ft 4 in) tall dorsal fin, 3.08 m (10 ft 1 in) long pectoral fins, and ...
The largest confirmed weight of a giant octopus is 74 kg (163 lb), [253] with a 7 m (23 ft) arm span (with the tentacles fully extended) and a head-to-tentacle-tip length of 3.9 m (13 ft). [254] Specimens have been reported up to 125 kg (276 lb) but are unverified. A weight of 10 - 50kg is a much more common size. [1]
This fish can reach a length of 2 m (6.6 ft) and a weight of 4.65 kg (10.3 lb).

The largest known land-dwelling artiodactyl was Hippopotamus gorgops with a length of 4.3 m (14 ft), a height of 2.1 m (6 ft 11 in), and a weight of 5 t (11,000 lb), [63] with its closely related European descendant, Hippopotamus antiquus, rivaling it, estimated to be 14.1 ft (4.3 m) in length and 7,700–9,300 lb (3,500–4,200 kg) in weight.
Some scientists define herbivorous terrestrial megafauna as having a weight exceeding 100 kilograms (220 lb), and terrestrial carnivorous megafauna as more than 15 kilograms (33 lb). Additionally, Owen-Smith coined the term megaherbivore to describe herbivores that weighed over 1,000 kilograms (2,200 lb), which has seen some use by other ...
