Titanoboa food

GAINESVILLE, Fla. — On Feb. 1, 2010, Alex Hastings, a graduate student at UF’s Florida Museum of Natural History, measures a jaw fragment from an ancient crocodile that lived 60 million years ago. The fossil came from the same site in Colombia as fossils of Titanoboa, indicating the crocodile was a likely food source for the giant snake.
