Bob Ernst collection of Miocene fossils from Sharktooth Hill, CA.

Fossil records place this extinct Allodesmus kelloggi mammal in middle to late Miocene deposits across California and Japan. Ancient ocean strata outline a geographical range spanning temperate coastal waters along the North Pacific Rim.

Fish, squid, and small marine organisms made up the diet of these large prehistoric carnivores.

Melanin distribution in fossilized skin structures suggests a dark brown or grayish fur color. Scientists estimate that this animal weighed about 800 pounds.
