Suchomimus was a formidable predator, reaching lengths of about 36 feet (11 meters) and weighing around 4 to 6 tons. It had a slender body with powerful limbs and sharp, conical teeth suited for catching and gripping prey. 

One of the most distinctive features of Suchomimus was the sail-like structure on its back. This sail, composed of elongated spines, may have served several purposes. 

Note: this tooth was glued after excavation on one spot.
