Dinosaur Figure "Dunkleosteus"

The dunkleosteus lived 130-150 million years before the first dinosaur. It was a fearless hunter that could bite quickly, ate sharks and even if it found no other prey, it ate its own kind. Next to its skeleton, fish that were only partially digested have often been found. That is why scientists believe that this armored fish could not chew well and swallowed its prey in large chunks. It is named in honor of the paleontologist David Dunkle. The word "osteos" is Greek and means "bone".

Fun fact

Instead of teeth, the dunkleosteus had long, sharp dental blades in its powerful jaw.
