Sea Monsters Unearthed! Ancient and Modern Environments
Shown: Cardiocoarx
Geologic period: Cretaceous
The giant elasmosauris Cardiocorax was a prominent predator in the super-rich fishery of the ancient South Atlantic. Growing 25 feet or more in length, the Cardiocorax was no threat to the mosasaurs of the time, but thrived on the fish and other marine life drawn to the ancient Angolan coast by nutrient-rich waters that rose to the surface.
