Would Anomalocaris actually do well in the modern world. I feel like they probably wouldn't do so well in the modern ecosystems of much more evolved marine creatures. Would get out-competed very quickly, and likely face plenty of other challenges. Being out-competed is likely the reason they went extinct in the first place.
