richardrli Posted November 25, 2007 #4 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Any ideas on what species this croc was? There was Purussaurus, which lived in South America at around the same time (20 million years ago) which was 50-60ft and up to 20 tons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
