Romaing the gorgraphic reigions which later became England and Spain, Baryonyx roamed the earth during the Early Creatcious perios, around 125 million yearsw ago.
It's almost certain that this 10-metre-long carnivore enjoyed a diet of fish after scientists found fish scales deep in the belly of a Baronyx fossil.
It's finely-serrated teeth and mouth shape were very similar to that of today's crocodillian species.
