Late Cretaceous through to the Eocene 100 million to 50 million years ago Enchodus is a genus of extinct predatory fish that lived during the Late Cretaceous period. These fish were known for their elongated bodies, sharp teeth, and large eyes, which suggest they were efficient hunters in the ancient seas. Enchodus species are commonly found in marine fossil deposits around the world, indicating they were widespread and successful predators during their time. Enchodus had a streamlined body shape, similar to modern-day barracudas, with sharp teeth that were well-suited for catching and eating smaller fish. Their large eyes suggest they were adapted for low-light conditions or hunting at night. Enchodus likely used their speed and agility to ambush prey and quickly strike with their sharp teeth. Fossils of Enchodus have been discovered in various locations, including North America, Europe, Africa, and South America. This widespread distribution indicates that Enchodus was a cosmopolitan genus that inhabited different marine environments across the globe. The extinction of Enchodus is believed to have occurred at the end of the Cretaceous period, along with many other marine species. The exact cause of their extinction is uncertain but may have been related to environmental changes or competition with other predators. Please be aware of the nature of fossils: Being buried under the ground for millions of years under tons of pressure tends to be rough. No fossil comes out of the ground whole and perfect. Most fossils have undergone some restoration, while others are altered by man simply to enhance their presentation in different ways. The workers in The United States do a very professional job, of unearthing and preserving these natural treasures, however, commonly natural cracks are visible on the surface. These are part of the natural beauty of the fossil and are not considered defects. Shipping Payments Terms of Sale Contact Us We offer combined discounted shipping on purchases made the same day.
