Did you think sea monster tales were just to scare us? To keep kids away from the water? Well, when T.rex was alive, there were monsters like this!

This is a Thalassotitan Atrox. It was a prehistoric sea animal when T-rex was alive. Dr. Nick Longrich, the leader of the studies on Thalassotitan Atrox described it as “Imagine a Komodo dragon crossed with a great white shark crossed with a T. rex crossed with a killer whale.” It was recently unearthed in Morocco. They evolved into snakes, iguanas, and monitor lizards. The teeth in the skull were damaged because it chewed on prey’s bones.
