A Suchomimus snags a shark from a lush estuary
A five ton, Early Cretaceous Suchomimus snags a shark from a lush estuary near the ancient Tethys Ocean in what today is Northern Africa.
Suchomimus was well-armed with long claws and a long, crocodile-like snout with dozens of teeth. Given these distinctly crocodilian features, its believed that this dinosaur, like modern day crocodiles, dined largely on fish

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a mesmerizing moment from the ancient world, as a Suchomimus, a formidable predator of the Early Cretaceous period, triumphantly snags a shark from the lush estuary near the ancient Tethys Ocean in Northern Africa. The sheer power and agility of this five-ton dinosaur are evident in its long claws and crocodile-like snout adorned with numerous sharp teeth. Resembling modern-day crocodiles, it is believed that Suchomimus primarily feasted on fish. This digitally generated image showcases the creature's hunting prowess and highlights its role as an apex predator during the Mesozoic era. The artwork vividly portrays the intense action as this bipedal spinosaurid seizes its prey, creating ripples in the water and splashing around. The scene unfolds against a backdrop of untouched wilderness – an estuary teeming with life where land meets river. It offers us a glimpse into prehistoric times when creatures like Suchomimus roamed freely, ruling over their domain with unmatched ferocity. Walter Myers' masterful illustration not only brings to life this extinct reptile but also serves as a reminder of our planet's rich natural history. It sparks curiosity about evolution, paleontology, and zoology while showcasing nature's intricate food chain dynamics. This awe-inspiring piece invites us to contemplate Earth's past inhabitants and marvel at their incredible adaptations for survival. As we gaze upon this striking image, we can't help but be captivated by both its beauty and violence – reminding us of nature's unyielding power and eternal cycle of life.
