Description Machimosaurus fue un gran cocodrilo marino de la familia de los teleosáuridos, que habitaron los mares durante el Jurásico tardío y principios del Cretácico. Se cree que las mayores especies alcanzaban los 10 metros de longitud y sus largas y estrechas mandíbulas erizadas de dientes habrían sido útiles para atrapar peces, pero se han encontrado marcas de sus dientes en huesos de dinosaurios, lo cual sugiere que eran eclécticos en su dieta. ¡Probablemente no habría sido buena idea acercarse mucho a uno! 
Inspirado por el reciente descubrimiento de los restos de un gran teleosaurio en Colombia, posiblemente un Machimosaurus.

Machimosaurus was a great sea crocodile of the teleosaurid family, which inhabited the seas during the late Jurassic and early Cretaceous. It is believed that the larger species reached around 10 m long, and their long, narrow jaws and interlocking teeth would've been great for catching fish, but its tooth marks have also been found in dinosaur bones, suggesting they were quite flexible in their diet. Probably not a very good idea to get too close! 
Inspired by the recent discovery of a great teleosaurid's remains in Colombia, possibly a Machimosaurus.

I wonder who would win between a large shark, like a Great White and this thing

Guess the prize for the winner can be that cute girl skinny dipping

Make her fat, sharks like things high in fat

I really like the murkiness with all those greens. Also nice how you managed to use the perspective, but it does seem that the croc is way bigger here than it really was. Had you put its tail behind the diver this would've been perfect, but now it's definitely over 15 meters. Regardless, this is really nice.

Oh, that's a typo! I meant it the other way around with the diver behind the tail.

You know the ocean is so large and vast and deep that there are many parts of the ocean that we have not discovered yet so these things may still exist and be living along with the megalodon.

Yes, an air-breathing open ocean predator like this would totally stay undetected for 130 million years. A 50+ foot whale-eating shark even more so. This ain't giant squids, man.

No that's my opinion dumby. I just wanted to start a conversation. Hell if experts actually discover more of the ocean then who knows what they might discover.
