What are the strategies of the megamouth?

The megamouth shark employs a unique feeding strategy characterized by its filter-feeding mechanism. It swims with its mouth wide open, allowing water and small prey, such as plankton and jellyfish, to flow in. Specialized gill rakers then trap the food while the water is expelled, allowing the shark to efficiently consume its diet. Additionally, its large mouth and slow-moving nature enable it to thrive in deep oceanic environments where such prey is abundant.
