EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases the awe-inspiring Deinosuchus crocodile, an extinct reptile that ruled the waters during the upper Cretaceous period. In this computer artwork, we are given a glimpse of its immense size as it gracefully glides underwater alongside a human for scale comparison. With its estimated length of up to 12 meters, Deinosuchus was truly a formidable predator. This ambush hunter lurked beneath the surface, patiently waiting to strike at both fish and dinosaurs alike. Its powerful jaws and carnivorous nature made it a force to be reckoned with in both freshwater and saltwater habitats. The illustration beautifully captures the essence of this prehistoric creature's strength and grace. The intricate details showcase its scaly skin texture and muscular build, reminding us of its ancient lineage dating back millions of years. As we observe this scene unfold before our eyes, we cannot help but marvel at the sheer magnitude of these creatures that once roamed our planet. Through paleontology and scientific discoveries like these fossils found worldwide, we gain valuable insights into Earth's rich history. Science Photo Library continues to provide us with stunning visuals that bridge the gap between past and present, allowing us to appreciate the wonders of our natural world through their remarkable collection.
