Family: Ichthyodectidae

Information: The Xiphactinus is one of the most unique species of carnivorous fish ever discovered. This aquatic predator existed 112-66 million years ago in the ancient cretaceous seas around the world. Where it dominated its ecosystem as a predator of it's time. It managed to do this by consuming large fish, and other prey items. This naval titan contains a unique jaw that expands foward, creating a vacuum in the water to syphon smaller prey items and eat them whole. Xiphactinus travels the seas by using its large muscular tail and its paddle-shaped fins to guide the direction where the Xiphactinus is going. The Xiphactinus was released into the mainland seas during illegal black market operations across the Mediterranean sea.
