Comment: 3 dimensional fish skulls are rarely offered, however this fearsome specimen is an excellent candidate. Saurodon was a rare eel-like fish reaching lengths of over 8 1/2 feet. It posessed scissor like jaws and a peculiar spiked predentary bone. This is the first 3 dimensional Saurodon skull ever offered for sale.
