Description
Mosasaur ToothMosasaurus beaugei
Late Cretaceous
Continental Sandstone Deposits
Kem Kem Basin, Morocco
2.15 x 1.24 x 1.00 inches (5.47 x 3.14 x 2.55 cm)
While not technically a Dinosaur - all of which lived on land - the Mosasaur was a giant aquatic reptile that dominated the ancient oceans. With conical teeth somewhat rounded that terminate in a point, they were ideally adapted for eating prey, including the shelled creatures that shared their environment. This Moroccan example is an excellent specimen of the type and is in great condition.
