Spinosaurus likely hunted by using its jaws to capture prey. It possessed adaptations for capturing fish, including a long narrow skull, and straight, conical teeth. However, teeth classified as coming from spinosaurids (that is, a member of the dinosaur family Spinosauridae) have been found embedded in pterosaur bones. Although many researchers think that it spent much of its time wading in shallow water, Spinosaurus was also likely to have hunted terrestrial prey.
