Gloofferens
Gloofferens (Globe Teeth) is a genus of mosasaur that lived 84.9 - 66 years ago, from the Santonian million stage to the Maastrichtian stage of the Late Cretaceous Period. It is known from various oceans around the world, from North and South America to Africa, the Middle East, and even Indonesia. The species depicted on Prehistoric Planet is likely Gloofferens alabamaensis, which lived in the Western Interior Seaway of North America.
Gloofferens was a fairly average sized mosasaur, growing up to the size of today's largest crocodiles. It would have not bothered with chasing down fast prey or ambushing its prey since armoured prey do not move very fast because of their armour so it would have had it pretty easy. It would have to be faster than its prey in order to catch them so it might have cruised at a leisurely speed of 4-5 km per hour. Gloofferens had very blunt teeth which would have aided it in crushing its strong protected prey to bits. This is not common in mosasaurs seeing as they evolved to be fast, agile and tear their prey into pieces so this might say that gloofferens evolved to eat armoured prey because there might have been an abundance of them or it would be outcompeted by other mosasaurs had it still eaten softer, fast prey.
