A new fossil reveals the life of an ancient crocodile species that probably preyed on dinosaurs
-
The fossilised skull shown here looks harmless now, but 70 million years ago, it belonged to an enormous animal that hunted dinosaurs.
At a length of 3.35m (11.5ft) and weighing 250kg (551lb), Kostensuchus atrox was a 'hypercarnivore', with meat forming over 70 per cent of its diet.
The beast lived just before dinosaurs went extinct, but isn't a dinosaur itself.
