3-Length: 4.5 meters

3-Length: 4.5 meters

4-Weight: 270 Kg*

5-Diet: I didn’t found specific information on this topic, but I think it would be similar to Platecarpus small fish, squid, young marine reptiles, etc...

Note: Clidastes shoulder girdle should be a little bit next to its head (it should have "no" neck)
