Beelzebufo most likely was a predator whose expansive mouth allowed it to eat relatively large prey, perhaps even juvenile dinosaurs. [ 9 ] [ 10 ] Bite force measurements from a growth series of Cranwell's horned frog ( Ceratophrys cranwelli ), suggest that the bite force of a large Beelzebufo —skull width 15.4 cm (6.1 in)—may have been ...
Quetzalcoatlus lawsoni, in particular, is strongly associated with abandoned channel and lake facies, which are rare in the Javelina Formation. These facies preserve a diverse fauna of gastropods and bivalves , though the vertebrate fauna known from other aquatic environments belonging the Javelina, such as crocodiles, fishes and turtles, are ...

The biggest odobenid and one of the biggest pinnipeds to have ever existed is Pontolis magnus, with a skull length of 60 cm (24 in) (twice as large as the skulls of modern male walruses) [151] and having a total body length of more than 4 m (13 ft). [152] [153] Only the modern male elephant seals reach similar sizes. [152]

Megalodon is thought to have been the largest macropredatory shark that ever lived. [35] A C. megalodon about 16 meters long would have weighed about 48 metric tons (53 tons). A 17-meter (56-foot) C. megalodon would have weighed about 59 metric tons (65 tons), and a 20.3-meter (67 foot) monster would have topped off at 103 metric tons (114 tons ...
Dentaneosuchus would have been an apex predator of its environment, capable of taking large prey such as Lophiodon. However, for as of yet unknown reasons crocodylomorphs would lose their spot as top predator in this part of the world by the end of the Eocene, with Dentaneosuchus representing one of the last members of its group in Europe.
