Description

THIS DRAWING IS INCREDABLY INNCCURETT BASED ON THE THREASHER SHACK CRETOXYRHINA, NEVER EVER EVER USE THIS FOR REFERENCE.

1-Nome: Cretoxyrhina mantelli

2-Formation: Niobrara Formation, West Interior Sea, 83 Mya.

3-Length: 6.5 meters (based on the specimens with the vertebral column preserved)

4-Weight: I don’t know.

5-Diet: Carnivore, apex predator (til large mosasaurs came along) eating whatever it could bite, including large fish like Xiphactinus, young/smaller plesiosaurs, mosasaurs and sea turtles.

6-Classification: I don’t care about fish taxonomy, but Cretoxyrhinidae is apparently closer to Alopiidae them other Lamniformes.

Discussion: First I wanna not that the eye is in an awkward place (should be a little bit more "northwester" in the skull), so I could talk about Cretoxyrhina anatomy but 105697 does has a pretty good journal on it so its not necessary. It is different from what we use to see, a unique shark adapted to different challenges and pray them the great white, and its completely ridiculous and unforgivable too see people in 2018 depicting it just like a Cretaceous Great White .
