Gates: I'M IN BAJA, MEXICO TO SOLVE A PREHISTORIC MURDER MYSTERY --

THE BIGGEST, MOST POWERFUL PREDATOR OF ALL TIME,

BELIEVES THE ANSWER MAY LIE IN THE MEG'S FOSSILIZED TEETH,

YEAH, THIS IS FROM A SHARK THAT WAS ABOUT

THAT LINED THIS SUPER-SHARK'S 11-FOOT MOUTH.

SO, WHAT CAN WE LEARN FROM A TOOTH LIKE THIS?

SO, THIS TOOTH IS REALLY BIG, IT'S TRIANGULAR,

IT'S THICK, IT'S GOT SERRATED CUTTING EDGES.

AND IN FACT, I BROUGHT SOMETHING ALONG TO SHOW YOU.

THE MEGALODON BIT ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE RIB.

THE NUMBER AND SIZE OF WHALES BEGAN TO DECLINE.

BECAUSE OF THIS, THE MEG HAD TO TURN TO SMALLER WHALES

AND PERHAPS ANOTHER MORE PLENTIFUL FOOD SOURCE.

THE PROBLEM WAS THEY WEREN'T THE ONLY ONES

OKAY, SO, IF IT DIDN'T DIE OUT FROM SOME MASS EXTINCTION EVENT,

COULD HAVE BEEN OUT-COMPETED BY A NUMBER OF DIFFERENT SHARKS.

AND ONE OF THEM IS STILL ALIVE RIGHT HERE IN BAJA TODAY.

IN FACT, ONE OF THE BIGGEST, STRONGEST, AND FASTEST

CAN BE FOUND IN THE WATERS OFF BAJA CALIFORNIA --

TO LEARN IF THE MAKO COULD HAVE GIVEN MEGALODONS

I'M MEETING WITH SHARK BEHAVIOR ECOLOGIST TRISTAN GUTTRIDGE.

I HEAR YOU'RE THE MAN TO SEE ABOUT A MAKO?

WE MOTOR OUT THREE MILES WITH THE FINEST SELECTION

AND IT TURNS OUT SHARKS AREN'T THE ONLY CREATURES OUT HERE

HOW CAN YOU DENY A SWEET LITTLE FACE LIKE THAT?
