Deep Ocean Predators and Limestone Formations
The Mosasaurus roamed deep marine environments where pale limestone deposits formed the ocean floor. Swimming high above these light rocky seabeds, this formidable aquatic reptile dominated prehistoric ocean food chains.
Ocean Floor Geology and Marine Hunters
Limestone seabeds were created over millions of years from the compressed shells and skeletons of tiny marine organisms. The light color of limestone sea floors created a stark contrast with the deep blue waters above. Large marine reptiles like the Mosasaurus traveled vast distances across these expansive underwater landscapes in search of prey.
