Is that the actual fossil or a cast? Man, I'd love to stand in front of that myself. The way it seems to look at you even in death!

This perspective makes it look very threatening. Too bad they have died out.

A creature with 'threat' written all over it's face... Would have made the Great White look like a plankton
