“This piece was conceived after watching a documentary featuring great white sharks scavenging a whale. I imagined the numerous large carnivores which would be attracted to the corpse of a large marine reptile. In the picture, the floating carcass is dominated by a Cretoxyrhina, and several smaller Squalicorax - crow sharks - and a Tylosaurus. The little fish are Enchodus, the sabre-toothed herring. The gull-like birds flying overhead are Icthyornis, and the bizarre pterosaur, Nyctosaurus, is gliding into view.”
