Mosasaur - Fossil skull - Halisaurus sp - 52 cm - 60 cm

A long-extinct apex predator. In fact the mosasaur was such an intense predator that if it were still swimming our oceans, the megalodon might never have existed! These nightmarish sea creatures were actually gigantic lizards that somewhat resembled the land-dwelling Komodo dragon. Imagine a lizard-monster with the double hinge jaw of a snake with enormous teeth and a tail like a shark.. oh and they could grow up to 18 meters long (depending on the species) that’s 4 meters longer than your average yellow school bus! So they basically ate anything they wanted (fish, dolphins, whales, sharks, even other Mosasaurs) Fossils of this species have been found on every continent, including Antarctica, evidence that these lizard kings dominated the ocean. The Halisaurus is a smaller brother from the same mosasaur family. This specimen is of exceptionally high quality and the fact that it is a Halisaurus makes it even more special…. #MasterpiecesW39
