Schleich Mosasaurus

The Mosasaurus from Schleich has been beautifully hand painted. A great gift for dinosaur lovers!

Pronounced MOW-ZUH-SAW-RUS

The Mosasaurus was a large aquatic reptile that lived in the ocean during the Late Cretaceous period. When hunting prey such as fish or turtles, the dinosaur opened its mouth very wide and bit down powerfully. The shape of its teeth means that it probably didn't chew, and simply swallowed. As an adaptation to the habitat, its front and hind legs evloved into fins. It also had a fin on the end of its tail.
