This is the most awesome fossil ever.

I challenge you to find better, bearing in mind that you will be judged against my own personal preferences and therefore have most likely already lost.

Mosasaurs were squamates, even lepidosaurs, like snakes and lizards, making them, of all the Mesozoic vertebrates, most justified in having the suffix "-saur" in their genera.

I find all non-avian, non-mammalian, non-testudine amniotes boring.

That is pretty damn awesome. Is that at the London Natural History Museum?

As yes. The Museum of Dead Shit.

Well, yes. There are lots of Museums of Dead Shit around the world. I was asking specifically if it was the London based one.

It's the Canadian Fossil Discovery Centre, home of the largest collection of marine reptile fossils (even larger than the Natural History Museum, based in a country whose large Mesozoic vertebrate fossils are almost exclusively marine reptiles. No mosasaurs, though).

Wil, how have you limit yourself to birds, mammals and turtles? I mean, I love Phorusrhacids, Mesonychids and Protostegids as much as the next guy, but how can you not find Therapsids, Pterosaurs and Sauropterygians fascinating?

Actually, I find birds rather dull, too. NO PUNS PLEASE, PILOT.

It’s not like I’m limiting myself: I just have preferences.

Eh, it just conflicts with my blunderbuss approach to science. I hate being pigeon-holed in one field.
