Description from the seller

Beautiful, very unique 4 Mosasaurus teeth & 2 Otodus teeth on display

The Mosasaurus was a sea lizard that lived in the oceans and ruled them; the species occurred worldwide and could reach up to 20 meters in length. Mosasaurs went extinct when, 66 million years ago, a gigantic meteor struck the Earth.
It was a very active predator with good eyesight. The skull and jaws were sturdy in construction, suitable for swallowing almost any other animal or reptile.

The Otodus Obliquus lived during the Paleocene to Eocene (about 60–45 million years ago) and is considered one of the earliest ancestors of the legendary Megalodon. With an estimated body length of 9 to 12 meters, this shark belonged to the largest predators of its time.

Type: 6x tooth in 2 displays
Height: between 2 and 4 cm
