There were giants in the earth in those days... Genesis 6:4
"A new study, revisiting fossil specimens from the enormous
crocodylian, Deinosuchus, has confirmed that the beast had teeth “the size of bananas,” capable to take down even the very largest of dinosaurs.
The research, published in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology, also reveals various kinds of “terror crocodile.” Two species, entitled Deinosuchus hatcheri and Deinosuchus riograndensis lived in the west of America, ranging from Montana to northern Mexico. Another, Deinosuchus schwimmeri, lived along the Atlantic coastal plain from New Jersey to Mississippi.
Ranging in up to 33 feet in length Deinosuchus, though, has been
known to be one of the largest, if not the largest, crocodylian genera ever in existence.
It was the largest predator in its ecosystem, outweighing even the largest predatory dinosaurs living alongside.
From previous studies of cranial remains and bite marks on dinosaur fossil bones, paleontologists have long speculated that the massive beasts preyed on dinosaurs."
