Réptil marinho - Crânio fóssil - Mosasaurus sp. - 47 cm - 23 cm

Large, exceptionally well-preserved and completely intact Mosasaurus skull a true rarity at wholesale price and in outstanding condition. This impressive fossil represents a Mosasaurus, a giant marine reptile from the Late Cretaceous period (approx. 70–66 million years ago) that could reach lengths of up to 20 meters. With a remarkable skull length of over 45 cm, this specimen beautifully showcases the defining features of one of the most fearsome apex predators of the ancient seas. The fossil preserves fine anatomical details of the bone structure, including the sharp conical teeth designed for gripping and tearing prey, and the robust jaw that testifies to the creature’s powerful bite. The eye sockets are clearly visible, offering a glimpse into the sensory adaptations of this ancient marine giant. This particular Mosasaurus skull is exceptionally well-preserved and has been only minimally restored, ensuring museum-level stability while maintaining its authentic natural appearance. Its outstanding quality makes it an important specimen both for scientific study and for exhibition purposes. Fossils of this calibre are highly valued for their scientific significance, educational value, and impressive display potential. An ideal piece for museums, educational institutions, collectors of fossils or curiosities, or as an extraordinary decorative centerpiece for a home, office, or reception area.
