In 2017, she and her colleagues identified a mass extinction in the oceans, which took out megalodon and a number of other large marine animals. "All the animals had a high metabolic demand," she says. Once prey became scarce, megalodon's warm-blooded lifestyle became too energetically costly.

More broadly, Otodus is part of a larger group of sharks called the Lamniformes. Back in the dinosaur era, the Lamniformes diverged from other sharks. "Whereas most sharks were 1m (3.3ft), these sharks were mostly 3m (9.9ft)," says Pimiento. Once they reached this larger size, they evolved the ability to regulate their body temperature. This allowed later Lamniformes to grow truly huge – but only when their environments were rich enough to sustain them.

The mixing of Celtic and Christian observances isn't unusual in Ireland. The tradition of making, sharing and eating boxty pancakes, or bacstaí, a traditional potato dish cooked on St Brigid's Day is influenced by both religions, creating a celebratory association unique to its food culture. Hailing from the north-western counties of Leitrim, Cavan, Fermanagh and Mayo, the traditional skillet-dish akin to a pancake is made with potato, milk and flour – and served with lakes of butter and sometimes a scattering of sugar as a treat for children. It was a dish reserved for eating on special feast days, and Brigid's Day was celebrated with equal fervour to Christmas Day.
