This skull is 85% original with some minor restoration. It is very rare and hard to find a piece like this nowadays. Many are reserved for museums and universities. This is a perfect piece found in Morocco.

Mosasaurs are a group of marine lizards that lived in the Badlands area from about 75-69 million years ago. When alive, mosasaurs could reach lengths of up to 50 feet, roughly the length of a bus! They were top predators of the world's oceans and would eat anything they could catch.

“Mosasaurs from younger rocks are relatively abundant, but mosasaurs are extremely rare in rocks older than about 90 million years,” said Dr. Titus. “Finding one that preserves so much informative data, especially one of this age, is truly a significant discovery.”

This original Mosasaur skull measures 61 cm long. Please check all the photographs here for more details about the skull.
