Edestus giganteus

Edestus the giant scissor tooth shark, a pretty big holopheclid eugeneodontid. Its teeth kept growin througout its life leading into a distinctive jaw shape. The teeth would eventually curl up as new and new teeth kept growing, giving it a really grotesque appearence.
This pic is a lot different from most edestus pics which usually shows him like a short nosed shark like animal or as a shark with a ridiculous curved up jaw, almost unable to close its mouth. I spent a lot time lookin st its teeth and to modern day chimaera which are its next living relatives. And then it came to me: the goblin shark, an ancient shark that still lives today with a distinctive protruding jaw. it also has a pretty chimaera like appearence with its long tail and rather primitve appearence. Thats why I gave edestus a similar appearence because I think it is actually quite plausible to be looking like this.

Turn out however that I wasnt the first one with that idea
