i believe a motivated female blue whale would win against any other creature.

I think either Cthulhu, a crossbreed between a hippopotomous and a lamprey, an attack submarine, that big Norse snake that wraps around the world with it's tail in it's mouth, or a REALLY huge army (navy?) of platypuses would take out a blue whale.

Sperm whales make a regular habit of eating mini-Cthulhus, so it would be a near-run thing in that case.

The most excellent of posts.

You are currently winning and I really don't know how anyone will beat you as most are unable to folow simple directions.

Thanks for the info and the post

1 sperm whale versus megamouth shark
2 no result : "It is also a significant event for studies of the relationship between whales and sharks - was it an attack, playfulness or just curiosity that attracted the Sperm whales to the Megamouth shark? "

Megalodon =/= megamouth.

The Sperm Whale would take the megalodon, since the whale is bigger and has the mammal advantage. Megalodon would probably waste an orca though due to the size difference.

Orca vs Great White.
nice find, although i notice the orca was twice the size of the shark - what if they were the same size?

Cookiecutter sharks, Isistius brasiliensis, can sink submarines, I searched for an article, but all I could find was this

http://www.amonline.net.au/wild_kids/sharks/cookie_cutter.htm

Apparently they like the taste of the rubber that houses the sonar dome on nuclear subs and can chew through enough that it can cause a leak and I remember reading that one such leak caused the near fatal sinking of a sub in WW2
