Mourasuchus was a prehistoric genus of crocodilians with incredibly massive, yet weak skulls. They have often been considered filter feeders, although there are other hypotheses about how they lived. All four species of Mourasuchus lived in South America between 16 to 7 million years ago, a time of unprecedented crocodilian diversity.
