 Hyneria

===These huge fish lived the the Devonian time period about 360 million years ago. There is evidence that they had very strong fins and could go onto land. To catch its prey it slides across the beach and attacks the animals and whips them back into the water! ===

weighed as much as 2 tons!!!!!!
===In 1968, fossilized teeth, bones and a tail fin were found by Keith Thompson in the Red Hill Shale of Pennsylvania.//Hyneria// was a prehistoric predatory [|lobe-finned fish] that lived during the Devonian === ===period around 360 million years ago!!!!!!! Many specimens have been found since then, although a complete skeleton has yet to be discovered. Hyneria was just one of many species of lobe-finned fish of the family Tristichopteridae, common in the Late [|Devonian] period, along with its close relative //[|Eusthenopteron]//, whose well-preserved fossils are common and so have been intensively studied by scientists for decades. ===
