The mosasaur is an extinct marine reptile that lived 70-65 million years ago. It had a long,barrel-shaped body,paddle-like flippers and a large heavy skull. It grew over 15 metres in length and weighed roughly 15 tons. In this image,a mosasaur is seen breaching the surface of the sea,perhaps in a desperate bid for food.
