"Monstrous Sea Lizard with Dagger-like Teeth Unearthed in Moroccan Mine"

Paleontologists in Morocco have unearthed the fossilized remains of a previously unknown marine lizard, named Khinjaria acuta, from the Cretaceous period. Measuring about 26 feet long with dagger-like teeth, this fearsome predator hunted in the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Africa some 66 million years ago. Belonging to the Mosasauridae family, its discovery adds to the diversity of top marine predators at the end of the Cretaceous, shedding light on the variety of hunting strategies among these ancient creatures.
