Flesh Restoration

(Late Cretaceous, Gove County, KA)

As with all mosasaurs, virtually half its length was tail. Clidastes was a surface or shallow water hunter unlike Platecarpus and Tylosaurus which followed their prey into the depths of the sea. Possessing a delicate and slim form with an expansion of the neural spines and chevrons near the tip of the tail, Clidastes was an agile and fast swimmer.

The skull, with all internal skull features preserved, measures 40 cm (15 1/2 inches) long and 9.5 cm (3 3/4 inches) wide, and is one of the finest Clidastes skulls ever found.
