Tylosaurus (SciiFii)

Tylosaurus oceanicus (name meaning "oceanic knob lizard") is a species of aquatic lizard belonging to the mosasaur family of the Tylosaurinae subfamily that originally lived in the United States during the Late Cretaceous around 90–66 million years ago as an extinct species of Tylosaurus and the genus itself was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. an to early Campanian of the Late Cretaceous period as an extinct species of Tylosaurus and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii. It was originally going to be showcased at Cretaceous Park, unfortunately, ships that contained tanks which had 19 Tylosaurus oceanicus had crashed into rocky seafloors near the coast of Oregon and sank, letting the 17 surviving Tylosaurus oceanicus loose into the modern Pacific Ocean. Tylosaurus oceanicus is a carnivore that primarily feeds on moderate-sized fish, squid, and smaller marine reptiles. Tylosaurus oceanicus is one of the largest mosasaurs, growing to between 5–15.8 meters (16–52 ft) long, depending on the availability and quality of its food sources. It has a high-profile tail fluke like other mosasaurs, showing that it and other mosasaurs do not have an eel-like swimming method, but are more powerful, fast swimmers similar to sharks. Like other mosasaurs, Tylosaurus oceanicus has a forked tongue similar to monitor lizards and has a same function, smelling for its food sources. The conservation status of Tylosaurus oceanicus is Least Concern due to the species' wide range and abundant source of food, as well as the species' tolerance to many of the human activities.
