Mosasaur - Fossil tooth - Mosasaurus sp. (No reserve price)

Scientific name: Mosasaurus sp. Geological period: Late Cretaceous (~70 million years ago) Origin: Oulad Abdoun phosphate basin, Morocco Habitat: Warm, shallow seas of the Mesozoic Total fossil size: 120mm x 75mm x 53mm and 240g Condition: Very good state of conservation. The crown is fully exposed and in its natural state, with no visible restorations. The tooth is mounted on a base of fossil bone or fossilized matrix from the same period, which enhances its aesthetic value and facilitates display. This specimen stands out for its well-defined conical shape and the characteristic brown color of the enamel, typical of the Moroccan deposits. The base presents a porous texture, probably corresponding to an original fossilized bone fragment. Mosasaurids were marine predatory reptiles, dominant in the oceans of the Cretaceous. They reached lengths beyond 15 meters and had dentition adapted to capturing slick prey such as fish, squids, and even other reptiles. Their powerful jaws, combined with conical teeth without denticles, gave them a lethal bite in marine environments. Fossils like this help us better understand the prehistoric marine fauna of North Africa. Ideal for collectors, educational settings, or as a decorative piece with history.
