Dive into the ancient oceans and encounter the Mosasaurus, one of the most fearsome marine predators to ever rule the seas. Living during the Late Cretaceous period, this massive marine reptile was not a dinosaur—but a powerful ocean hunter more closely related to modern lizards and snakes.
 
With its long, streamlined body, paddle-like limbs, powerful tail, and jaws lined with sharp teeth, Mosasaurus dominated prehistoric waters. It hunted fish, ammonites, and even other marine reptiles, using speed and strength to overwhelm its prey. The Schleich® Mosasaurus figurine brings this legendary sea monster to life with dynamic sculpting and realistic details, perfect for immersive underwater adventures and educational play.
