Mosasaur Skull, Prehistoric Marine Reptile, Genuine Teeth and jaws, Upper Cretaceous, Worldwide Shipping

The Mosasaur was a very large prehistoric marine reptile that is believed to be the ancestor of modern day lizards. It is estimated to have been between 50 feet – 70 feet long. Mosasaurs lived during the cretaceous period. This skull originates from Morocco and the parts are professionally glued back together with restorations. Note that they dont belong to the same skull, meaning not found in one place together. However, they are genuine parts of the Mosasaurus species and they have been restored professionally with some repairs.

Nestled within the phosphate basins of Khouribga, Morocco, lies a remarkable fossil treasure: the partially restored skull of a Mosasaurus. This prehistoric marine predator's skull, boasting an impressive 75 percent of its original structure, stands as a testament to both its ancient power and the meticulous work of paleontologists.

Measuring a formidable 76 centimeters in length, the Mosasaurus skull exudes a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur. Its well-preserved features reveal intricate details of the creature's anatomy, from the robust jaws lined with sharp, conical teeth to the intricate sutures that once bound its cranial plates together. Despite the passage of millions of years, the quality of preservation is exceptional, allowing for a vivid glimpse into the creature's formidable existence.

The discovery of this Mosasaurus skull is not just a scientific marvel but also a testament to the enduring allure of paleontology. Its acquisition is further enriched by the forthcoming gift of a stand, ensuring that this ancient relic will be displayed with the dignity and reverence it deserves, captivating the imaginations of generations to come
