Due to an upcoming update, a large majority of dinosaurs will undergo statistic changes. Dinosaur Simulator Wiki staff is will work hard to fully update the wiki as well, but due to the vast amount of changes it will take some time. This notice will be shown globally. It is highly recommended you properly update this page to meet our wiki's standards, and to make sure we can all access the quality information we deserve when the update goes live. Thank you!

"Well then."
Information
Megalodon is an extinct megalodontid bivalve added in 6.3.0. It was originally a joke created by the dev team for April Fools day since the community demanded the Carcharocles Megalodon, so they added a clam with a similar name.
Note: The shark Carcharocles Megalodon was believed to have most likely never be featured as its own creature because it didn't live in the Mesozoic Period and because Dinosaur Simulator players still have a bunch of other swimming apex predators to worry about (Pliosaurus, Mosasaurus, Elasmosaurus, Megavore, etc.). But then on the Shark week update, it got added in, albeit as a creature that would become limited in a few days.
Appearance
It is purely white with a spotted texture and has a couple of white, grey and blue pearls inside of its shell. It is very slow, and nearly all of its movement animations involve it spinning.
In Real Life
Megalodon, (giant tooth; not to be confused with the prehistoric shark Carcharocles Megalodon) or Clam, is an extinct genus of small clam that lived from the Early Devonian to the Early Jurassic in Europe, North America, Asia, South America, and Africa. This genus includes several species like M.hungaricum and M.yancey.
Trivia
- It was incredibly weak and very expensive for something as weak as it, in fact, it died on spawn and was very glitchy when it came out. Since then it has been patched mostly although it is still weak.
- Due to the fact that it is difficult in most cases to get food without starving, because of its extremely low hunger while a baby, and that ithas very low health, the Megalodon cannot take starve damages until adult.
- The name is not to be confused with the extinct genus of otodontid shark Carcharocles Megalodon.
- It is one of the most unpopular animals yet to be featured in Dinosaur Simulator.
- The diamond Megalodon is the easiest available diamond skin to get in the game, only costing
1,540 in total ( 540 for the Megalodon, and 1,000 to obtain diamond Megalodon). - During an update which was going to make Carcharocles Megalodon a limited creature, ChickenEngineer made the wrong Megalodon to be limited. This caused the Bivalve Megalodon to go limited.
- It has the highest Moistness stat out of all of the Aquatic creatures. However, unlike other aquatic creatures, its speed does not slow down on land. Despite this, the Megalodon is still the slowest playable in the game, even more slower than a Barosaurus!
