TL;DR Summary

The largely intact skull of a pliosaur, a ferocious marine reptile that lived 150 million years ago, has been discovered on England's Jurassic Coast. Measuring 6 feet and equipped with 130 teeth, the skull is believed to have belonged to an underwater T-rex-like creature capable of killing in a single bite. The fossil, one of the most detailed ever found, will be displayed in a museum next year, while scientists believe the rest of the animal is still waiting to be discovered in the cliffs. The discovery will be featured in a BBC documentary with David Attenborough.
