In a groundbreaking discovery, a research team led by a UNF professor and the Bureau of Land Management has unveiled new evolutionary insights following the find of a 94-million-year-old mosasaur in southern Utah’s gray shale badlands.

University of North Florida faculty member Dr. Barry Albright has made a significant breakthrough in evolutionary research as part of a team led by the Bureau of Land Management .

This historical period, occurring between 84 and 95 million years ago was characterized by a vast seaway that covered a significant portion of North America. Leading the research efforts was Dr. Alan Titus, a paleontologist from the BLM Paria River District, who was assisted by a crew of BLM staff and dedicated volunteers.

Mosasaurs, which resembled gigantic lizard-like predators, dominated the oceans during the latter part of the dinosaur age. Their ancestors were similar to modern-day Komodo Dragons but underwent significant transformations over time to adapt to aquatic life. Sarabosaurus, as an early representative of mosasaurs, retained more lizard-like features but possessed a unique characteristic—a new method of circulating blood to its brain.
