This is actually my favourite mosasaur. It had one of the stronger jaws of the mosasaur family, and was had notoriously robust teeth. I’m also pretty sure that p.Overtoni was actually known from a smaller specimen of Prognathodon, so it would’ve been much larger.

Do you know if the giant crocodile shown in the _Last Killers_ episode of _Planet Dinosaur_ is _Deinosuchus_ ? or is it just a generic giant crocodile.
I thought Prognathodon lived in the Ocean, the only freshwater mosasaur I can think of is Pannoniasaurus and I don't think that would have lived with Edmontosaurus or Pachyrhinosaurus as it lives in Hungary, also at a different time.
There can never be a "none". Every animal is related to another animal, either distantly or closely by relativity. In the case of Prognathodon, it would be the snake. Both snakes and mosasaurs are squamates, so out of all the animals given here, snakes would be the closest relatives of Prognathodon.

My favorites are Halisaurus and Tylosaurus

No? Large mosasaurs only lived in the sea, there WERE freshwater or brakish water mosasaurs, but they were small, basal forms, not 30-foot giants

The genus Prognathodon has many species. This one in particular, "P.overtoni" lived inland.
King Rexy The Mosasaur equivalent of a Crocodile. How about that. Still, there was an ocean in the middle of North America.

David Attenborough wasn't involved with Walking with Monsters? Didn't even narrate it.

I know, it was just a joke where I stupidly got the source of the familiar scene from.
I am so confused
Prognathodon is little bit similar to the basilosaurus but I know that basilosaurus was a mammal
No.
Do you know if the giant crocodile shown in the _Last Killers_ episode of _Planet Dinosaur_ is _Deinosuchus_ ? or is it just a generic giant crocodile.

Yeah, likely to be Deinosuchus.

This species lived inland.
Can anyone tell me if there's any paleontological precedence to mosasaurs being an inland river?
I love dinosaurs
Isn’t that fresh water wouldn’t they be found mainly in the sea? And perhaps large rivers
Interesting
Cool
Attack of the Prognathodons
Just a question. Could a 30 foot mosasaur really kill a full grown Edmomtosaurus or Pachyrhinosaurus with such ease?
Mosasaurus on a budget...
Don’t disrespect prognathodon it is very good for what it is
@@Melanosuchusniger
We´re just saying it deserves better then this movie did to it.
👌
At 0:13 did it say that its Carson.
Call Me Carson the mosasaur.
How the hell did a prognathodon end up all the way at a half frozen body of water?
They do look like humanoid marine reptile
They are Mosasaurs, a group of aquatic reptiles
@@supermariologanfan6546 thanks i forgot xD
This reptile lives in the water
It awesome sea creatures predators
Whichone is closest to Prognathodon?
(In Snake, Tuatara, Pliosaurus, Crocodile)
None, Prognathodon was more related to monitor lizard of today, since it was a mosasaur
There can never be a "none". Every animal is related to another animal, either distantly or closely by relativity.
In the case of Prognathodon, it would be the snake. Both snakes and mosasaurs are squamates, so out of all the animals given here, snakes would be the closest relatives of Prognathodon.
@@riamus7258 man does his research
Whichone is closest to Prognathodon?
(In Dunkleosteus, Proterogyrinus, Hylonomus, Archaeothyris, Petrolacosaurus)
^
In this case would be petrolacosaurus because both prognathodon and petrolacosaurus are both diapsids
When did overtoni go extinct? Anybody know?

Why two names?
The first the generic or genus name and the second is the specific or species name. Like Tyrannosaurus rex, or Carcharocles Megalodon.

Deinosuchus wouldn’t be able to even survive there
But Prognathodon existed here so. Still dumb showing it in icy water.
