Beyond the game
The real Mourasuchus
Mourasuchus was a crocodylian with a remarkably broad, flattened snout. That head shape makes it different from a simple enlarged version of a familiar predatory crocodile.
The broad snout has prompted feeding interpretations different from the usual large-prey crocodile story. Its precise use is less directly known than the shape of the skull.
