Killer whale shark (SciiFii)

A killer whale shark (Deinorhincodon horridus) is a species of carpet shark that originally did not exist, but has since been created by SciiFii and introduced throughout the Atlantic Ocean to help boost biodiversity. The killer whale shark is the second largest predatory shark (behind Megalodon), growing to be about 48.5 feet (14.7 meters) in length and weighing nearly as much as a Megalodon. Unlike the closely related whale sharks (Rhincodon typus), the killer whale shark has a more streamlined body and many large, razor-sharp teeth used for slicing through flesh. However, it possesses no danger to terrestrial or marine mammals, since it only preys on live marine reptiles such as plesiosaurs, ichthyosaurs, and mosasaurs, and it is also a scavenger that feeds on any dead animals (not just marine reptile carrion, but also marine mammal carrion). The social behavior and the reproductive lifecycle of the killer whale shark is almost identical to those of whale sharks, and like them, the killer whale shark can adapt to life in large aquariums. The conservation status of the killer whale shark is Vulnerable due to some illegal shark finning companies, however, thanks to the conservationists, the killer whale shark is a protected species and is making a comeback.
