jax Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I have always wanted a Mosasaur skull, but im not sure how great this one is, or how real it is. See for your self Ebay Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramo Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 I don't know much (hardly anything) about Morrocan mosasaurs, but that looks to me like an alligator skull with mosasaur teeth. It doesn't look anything like the mosasaur skulls on www.oceansofkansas.com but like I said I don't know much and possibly the morrocan mosasaurs are lot different. For one species to mourn the death of another is a new thing under the sun. -Aldo Leopold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auspex Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 Red flags: "MOROCCAN" and "HAS HAD EXTENSIVE RECONSTRUCTION". Roughly translated, it is Man Made (maybe the teeth are real, but not associated). This is why the assemblage doesn't look right.

This is why the assemblage doesn't look right. I was thinking it looked too much like a Gator skull. Pretty funny how the whole thing looks dingy except the teeth. They look just placed on it.....

MikeD Posted July 26, 2008 Share Posted July 26, 2008 That's a gator with teeth added. It does look more impressive than those fake jaw sections with three or four teeth added to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
