Mosasaur Beside a Natural Basalt Causeway
Mosasaurs were giant apex predators of Late Cretaceous oceans, using powerful flippers and broad tails to navigate open waters. The sea reptile swims along a natural causeway composed of hexagonal basalt columns, accompanied by a large coiled ammonite.
How Basalt Causeways Form in the Ocean
Basalt causeways are geological structures created when lava cools rapidly upon contact with seawater or air, cracking into geometric columns. These submerged volcanic rock formations provided anchor points for sea creatures and camouflage for hunting marine reptiles.
