Information about the mosasaur:
The mosasaur lived in the sea and was a carnivorous dinosaur; depending on the species it had a broader or narrower skull. It was equipped with robust jaws, as well as large teeth and strong muscles, which enabled a very strong bite; its four limbs were shaped into paddles to steer the animal underwater.

It became especially famous through the films Jurassic Park & Jurassic World.
