A mosasaur can have only one creature swallowed at a time. If the mosasaur takes 95 damage or more on a single turn from the swallowed creature, the mosasaur must succeed on a DC 17 Constitution saving throw at the end of that turn or regurgitate the creature, which falls prone in a space within 10 feet of the mosasaur. If the mosasaur dies, a swallowed creature is no longer restrained by it and can escape from the corpse by using 15 feet of movement, exiting prone. REACTIONS Unbridled Fury. In response to being hit by a melee attack, the mosasaur can make one melee weapon attack with advantage against the attacker.

Dmitry Bogdanov Source The oceans of the dinosaurs time were full of many large creatures, but few were as fearsome the mosasaur. This 50-foot long reptile has the blubber of a whale, four powerful flippers, long, strong jaws, a second pair of teeth within the throat, and a long, powerful tail topped off with a dorsal fin of cartilage, much like the tail of a shark. It dwells in shallow reefs and lagoons as the apex predator, feeding on anything from fish, ammonites, sea turtles, and even giant sharks from time to time.
