Prognathodon is an extinct gender of mosasaurid saurops that lived during the Late Cretaceous in present-day North America, Europe, and Africa. Related to modern lizards, these marine reptiles were highly successful predators that, had it not been for the Cretaceous-Paleogene extinction, would most likely still be with us.
