Paleontologists say that the MEGs were coastal predators only, so no whales ment no food for them. This resulted in them dying off as they had nothing to eat but themselves.

AFAIK Whales living near coastlines died off due to humans hunting them, and this happened during the last 1000 years. Of course, maybe humans didn't hunt sperm whales that much back then...
Thank you on the compliment Smile. Back when I first heard of them, I did me best doing research (online reading, documentaries, etc) on them, particularly their survival or not.

Considering how dangerous the Sperm Whales are, I doubt humans hunted them that long ago (otherwise we'd have more tales of Moby Dick Style attacks) Wink
