Dallasaurus
Dallasaurus was a small, ancient marine lizard that lived in the sea about 92 million years ago. It could walk on land too, like a modern seal, because its legs were not yet flippers.1

Prettige feite
Dallasaurus is one of the oldest mosasaurs found in North America, living about 92 million years ago.1
It was small for a mosasaur, only about 1 meter (3.3 feet) long, much smaller than later giant mosasaurs.1
Dallasaurus had legs that could still walk on land, so it lived both in the water and on shore, like a seal.1
Its fossils were found in a housing construction site in Texas, and the site is now covered by buildings.1
The species name turneri honors amateur fossil collector Van Turner, who found the first specimen.1
Dallasaurus is a close relative of later, fully marine mosasaurs that had flippers instead of legs.3
