According to evolution, the largest animals to have ever lived occupied the marine environment, early marine giant Scienceodern cetaceans evolved their large size over tens of millions of years in response to the increased productivity of cold marine waters.

 However, according to Darwinists, whales were not the first marine giants to evolve. Sander et al. describe a 244-million-year-old fossil ichthyosaur that would have rivalled modern cetaceans in size.

 The animal existed at most 8 million years after the emergence of the first ichthyosaurs, suggesting a much more rapid size expansion that may have been fuelled by processes after the Permian mass extinction.

 However, size does not involve evolution, God could have created the ichthyosaur as its own species from the beginning. 

At times, Darwinists has said these animals evolved sharp teeth to crush shellfish.  

 Darwinian folktales are interesting. Some, for instance warn of the use of predestination in biology, as we have four limbs because we have a belly - A new evolution story.
