Oooohhhh!

Ancient dino-eating croc had huge teeth and a dog's face: These 'crocodilian' monsters had longer legs for galloping after prey
A crocodilian fossil with big teeth and a doglike skull is now shedding light on the anatomy of a strange group of predators, scientists have revealed.

The fossil was unearthed by a municipal worker in a small town in Minas Gerais, Brazil. It dates back 70 million years, near the end of the Age of Dinosaurs.

Galloping. Crocodiles. Gulp. :)
