It was a female measuring approximately  feet or 7 meters.

My guess would be the Bull shark, they are frequently in the shallows and that's where people usually are.

hey bud - \n\ni have seen the film\n\nA Great White Shark decides to make the small beach resort town of Amity his private feeding grounds. This greatly frustrates the town police chief who wants to close the beaches to chase the shark away. He is thwarted in his efforts by the town's mayor who finally relents when nothing else seems to work and the chief, a scientist, and an old fisherman with revenge on his mind take to the sea to kill the beast.\n\nit is a great movie\n\nJaws won Academy Awards for Film Editing, Music (Original Score) and Sound. It was also nominated for Best Picture, although Steven Spielberg was not nominated for Best Director. The film is consistently on the Internet Movie Database's list of top 250 films.[11] Jaws was #48 on American Film Institute's 100 Years... 100 Movies, a list of the greatest American films of all time, and #2 on a similar list for thrillers, 100 Years... 100 Thrills. It was #1 in the Bravo network's five-hour miniseries The 100 Scariest Movie Moments (2004).[12] The shark was anointed #18 on AFI's 100 Years, 100 Heroes and Villains, opposite Robin Hood. In 2001 the United States Library of Congress deemed the film "culturally significant" and selected it for preservation in the National Film Registry. In 2005, the American Film Institute voted Roy Scheider's line "You're gonna need a bigger boat" as number 35 on its list of the top 100 movie quotes. John Williams's score was ranked at #7 on AFI's 100 Years of Film Scores.

Sperm whales are the biggest toothed whales there is. Female sperm whales (called cows) can be up to 40 feet long, and weigh 20 tons. Males (called bulls) can be as long as 65 feet, weighing around 70 tons.

On land, the elephant.  In the sea, the whale shark, however, more and more evidence is pointing towards giant squid that, until recently, was thought to be just a myth.

Depends on the species, but the Eastern Diamondback is the biggest and the record is 96 in. (8 ft.) and 35 lbs.

Its almost 49 feet long and weights almost 990 pounds. If confirmed, it will be the largest captured snake. It was captured in Indonesia.

I haven't heard of any shark species being endangered.  I know "Jaws" author Peter Benchley was an advocate of their conservation (which was reported at the time of his recent death), but I was and am still unaware that there was a need for conservation.  The only shark species I know to be extinct is the Megalodon (the much larger ancestor of the Great White).

Largest Land Animal: African bush elephant (13 feet high, 8 tons) \n\nMore largest animals at:\n\nhttp://www.worldalmanacforkids.com/explore/animals2.html

You have to define what biggest means. The longest is probably the siphonore, a relative of the jellyfish, it can stretch to nearly 1 mile in length.  The Brachiosaur was one of the largest dinosaurs and while very large pales in comparision to the Blue Whale in weight.\n\nSo, you first have to decide: Length (siphonophore), Weight (Blue Whale), or height (Brachiosaur)\n\nBlue whales, found in all the oceans of the world, are true leviathans, stretching as long as 100 feet and weighing as much as 200 tons. (A Brachiosaurus, perhaps the largest dinosaur, weighed an estimated 50 tons.) The Brachiosaur with neck outsretched could be at tall as 55 feet.

A museum in Britain recently got a hold of a fairly well preserved one about 28 feet long.  I believe larger ones have been found, and based on (spikes?  sucker marks? beaks of eaten squid?) measured on sperm whales, truly humongous ones are out there.  \n\nA Japanese team got several photographs of a live one, a major first. The National Geo article linked to below has more history on giant squid observations.\n\nThey are hard to find because they live very deep and the oceans are large to boot.  Something like that is going to need a large hunting area so there won't be a huge concentration of them.

Being a Great White Shark would be awesome...I'd be able to sense a heartbeat through the water, and I could smell blood a mile away. I'd never have to worry about dental care!

The answer depends on what your definition of the "top predator" actually is, and whether you are refering to the entire continent of Africa or a specific country, i.e. South Africa.\n\nHowever, I suspect that the answer you are looking for is the Nile Crocodile.\n\n***************\n\n2nd Attempt :-)\n\nSo, if I'm wrong in my assumption that it is the Crocodile, then perhaps my first guess was correct and I should have said 'Carcharodon carcharias' - the Great White Shark.

The megamouth shark was discovered in the 1970's. It's a fliter-feeder like the basking shark but in deeper waters. It's a black shark and pretty big.\n\nThe port jackson shark and the goblin shark I believe are newer than most. The goblin shark has like a horn coming out of his snout like a swordfish. These sharks are also quite large as far as sharks go anything over 6 feet is generally "big" since the majority of species of sharks are under 6 feet.\n\nThere are about 350 known species but scientists estimate there are about 550 species out there with 200 to go.

The largest elephant on record was an adult male African elephant. It weighed about 24,000 pounds (10,886 kilograms) and was 13 feet (3.96 meters) tall at the shoulder! Most elephants don't get that large, but African elephants grow larger than Asian elephants.\n\nHope that helped!

What do you mean by largest? Do you mean biggest weight or biggest length?\n\n**The heaviest snake in the world is the anaconda. They can weigh more then 500 pounds!\n\n**The longest snake in the world is the python. They can get to be about 33 feet!
