Mosasaurus holds a unique place in the study of prehistoric life. When the first skull was discovered in 1776, it was thought to belong to an unknown animal, possibly a crocodile or a whale, still living somewhere on Earth. But the decades passed without any sign of Mosasaurus. The creature at the origin of this interrogation is one of the most dangerous marine predators of the Cretaceous. Its limbs evolved into two pairs of fins with more bones in its fingers than its terrestrial ancestors had. Its tail is flattened vertically, which together with its wedge-shaped head makes it look like a cross between a fish and a crocodile. Like all Mosasaurs, its jaws have a joint at half their length, which allows it to open to the side. It has rows of particularly sharp teeth. The Mosasaurus probably ate fish, squid and turtles, but also ammonites. Fossils of ammonites have indeed been found bearing the teeth marks of Mosasaurus. We can compare this marine reptile to a giant marine lizard.
