1

Tylosaurus had a long, bony snout that stuck out like a prow, which is why one species is named proriger, meaning 'prow-bearing'.1

2

Fossils show Tylosaurus fought each other, with bite marks on skulls and other bones.1

3

One Tylosaurus skeleton had the remains of a 2-meter-long mosasaur, a diving bird, a fish, and a shark all in its stomach at once.1

4

Tylosaurus had an endothermic (warm-blooded) metabolism, unlike most modern lizards and snakes.1

5

It gave birth to live young, not eggs, based on its close relatives.3

6

Tylosaurus lived from about 93.9 to 66 million years ago, during the Late Cretaceous.3
