Mosasaurus Tooth & Watercolour Illustration Box Frame Real Authentic Dinosaur Fossil Museum Quality Interior Design Home Decor Gift Ornament

This Mosasaurus Tooth & Watercolour Illustration has been displayed and elegantly mounted in a museum quality deep box frame, by our expert in house team and is accompanied by a beautiful watercolour reconstruction of this species. informed by detailed knowledge and understanding of dinosaur anatomy, this watercolour design has been created by a published scientific illustrator and specially commissioned for our paleo collection. Despite coexisting for millions of years, Mosasaurs and dinosaurs are not related. Mosasaurs are in fact reptiles, and are closely related to modern day Monitor Lizards. While some species only grew to around 3 ft in length, the biggest could be over 50 ft! They swam using a shark-like tail fin, and had flipper-like limbs for manoeuvrability. Stomach contents of mosasaurs have revealed a varied diet, including fish, sea turtles, plesiosaurs and even sea birds. Although mosasaurs are aquatic, they still breathed air like all reptiles and had to regularly surface to take a breath. The frame is made from satin-finished acrylic. Each specimen is mounted on a 300 GSM acid-free card stock which includes both the scientific and common name of the insect printed below. The frame can either be self-standing or mounted using the invisible wall hanging bracket. All of our specimens are responsibly sourced and handcrafted to order by one of our Curated team members in our Cheshire studio.
