It is Pliosaur, a giant sea monster with a maximum length of 16m and can weigh up to 12 tons.
Fossil hunter Kevan Sheehan, 40, recently found pieces of skull from a Pliosaur at the coast of Dorset County, England. According to paleontologists, this species once infested terror in the oceans 150 million years ago, at the same time as dinosaurs.

Pliosaur belongs to a giant marine reptile group. Their necks are short, big heads and crocodile heads. With four paddles, large and strong jaws and sharp teeth, the Pliosaur can kill prey at a glance.
'His teeth are so strong that he can crush a car as easily as a hand. They may even compact a tyrant dinosaur, 'said Dr. Richard Forrest, a UK reptile expert.
