Carcharodon Hubbelli leaping into history

It's a pic of a the intermediate Great White Shark species Carcharodon Hubbelli breaching with a seal in its jaw. Fossils for this shark where found in the Pisco- formation in Peru. The shark was named in honor of Gordon Hubbell who discovered it. The shark was at least 16 ft. (4.8 meters) long. The recent discovery of this shark debunks the theory that great Whites derived from Megatooth Sharks a.k.a Megalodons since C. Hubbelli has been stated as a precursor to Great White Sharks. I used a H, HB, 2H style pencils and qtips for the shading. Enjoy.
