This type of whale was juvenile megaladons favorite meal at only 7 feet long. It had long tusks that were used to fight other odobenoceptos'. Young Megaladon used to bite these in half or a young or injured one would only bite its tale off and leave it to die, before eating it..

- Odobenocetops was a small cetacean from the Pliocene. It is significant for its long, conical tusks that protruded from the sides of its face.
- Odobenocetops ("walrus-face whale") was a small whale from the Pliocene. It had two tusks, and, in some fossils, one tusk was longer than the other. Odobenocetops was probably the prey of C. megalodon.
