The Megamouth shark is a very large filter-feeder which is best characterized by its size, large head and huge terminal mouth. Reported stomach contents suggest that this shark feeds largely on euphausid shrimp, but also partakes in the ever-succulent copepods and jellyfish (large, slow moving, pelagic vacuum cleaners aren't proud).
