An enormous prehistoric alligator that ambushed dinosaurs in the Cretaceous.
This Cretaceous "terrible crocodile" would make a modern alligator look like a household pet; some estimates place the total body length at around fifty feet. These reptiles were easily large enough to snatch up dinosaurs drinking carelessly from a local water source. Scientists have calculated that Deinosuchus could bite with a pressure exceeding 18,000 newtons - more biting power than even the largest of Tyrannosaurs. This figure of the Deinosuchus has been realistically sculpted with dorsal osteoderms, and is exactly 22 centimers in length.
