Enorme dente di Mosasauro dal Marocco con radice e parte di osso mandibolare, osso parzialmente restaurato, si possono comunque notare le naturali porosità ossee. Dente completamente naturale. Appartenuto ad un grosso esemplare adulto. Ritrovamento zona sahara nord occidentale. Questo animale del cretaceo è stato uno dei più grandi predatori marini.
Mosasaurus fu uno degli ultimi mosasauridi, oltre a essere uno tra i più grandi. Come la maggior parte dei mosasauridi, gli arti si erano evoluti in corte ma efficienti pinne, e le pinne anteriori erano più grandi delle pinne posteriori. La più grande specie conosciuta, M. hoffmannii, poteva raggiungere una lunghezza pari a 17-18 metri (56 piedi)[1], leggermente più lungo rispetto ai suoi parenti più stretti Tylosaurus e Hainosaurus. Inoltre, Mosasaurus era anche il più robusto tra i mosasauridi, raggiungendo un ragguardevole peso di 25-30 tonnellate negli esemplari maggiormente sviluppati,[2] soprattutto il cranio dotato di una mandibola collegata molto strettamente al cranio. Il corpo era lungo, grosso e a forma di botte. Gli occhi erano relativamente grandi, ma garantivano una scarsa visione binoculare, e i bulbi olfattivi erano poco sviluppati, pertanto gli esperti ritengono che Mosasaurus vivesse vicino alla superficie
