Dunkleosteus (meaning “Dunkle’s Bone”) in real life had the fastest bite of ANY animal in history, able open AND close its mouth in 1/50 OF A SECOND!! This causes water to be pulled in so quickly, it’s mouth then acted as a split-second vacuum, instantly pulling its prey into its mouth.

Oh, and it ate sharks during its time (late Devonian Period) since sharks weren’t as apex or as developed (looking more like eels, ie. the Cladasolache).

Steelslaughter here,

I’ve made the comment on this having the fastest bite of all time, and I thank you for correcting me with this information. I actually never heard about this ant, so major thanks for this break in the case. And sorry about what I said before with this creature.

The guy who was correcting the guy who said dunkle had the fastest bite,what if he is referring to the most fastest prehistoric creatures bite,and were not here to start a argument cause of a ant

Whoever said this thing is neutral was wrong... very wrong.

They may seem calm, and won't be dangerous most of the time, but don't be fooled: They boast descent damage and godlike resistance, think of them as Rock Elementals of the sea, exchanging HP for numbers.

Just like elementals, they have a small aggro range, very slow movement speed and not the highest of the DPS. But if you get cornered, be ready to suffer a slow death by their stone-crushing jaws.

The Center map. 40Lat,85 Long- Countless Dunkleo pit. You're welcome for your death.

They are neutral when solo. However, they will agro when in groups of 3 or more.

To the guy who said his journeyman sword done 300-400 dmg but only 100 to the dunkle, the sword damage differs depending on where you hit and how armoured the creature you are attacking is.

Is surprisingly stunned by a Baryonyx!

Ok so I'm unsure what happened but no matter how many times I shot it with my tranqs it didn't fight at all so an easy tame with a frog????

These guys have some pretty tough armor. Also a good source of deep sea chitin if you want to avoid the torpor creatures(araneo, scorpions(land and sea)) and other poison insects. Just be aware of this during an encounter.

To find a dunkleo simply hit an ammonite and it will cry to its ocean army so easy find

best way is to find one near the beaches on the southern area of Crystal Isles. they will be spawned there.. and stuck for some reason. just have a long neck and around 50 darts

So I seen one for the first time and they r way way bigger then I thought lol I really thought they was small or medium sizes for the longest time ... But no they are huge lmao

Hi, I had a sword that does like 300-400 damage to some Dino’s, but when I used it it only did about 100 damage to this guy. And mine was I think a journeyman sword. If you wanna kill this thing. Get a GOOD sword.

They usually near the cave behind carno island,i usually see them everytime I go down there

Alright so if you know where the green pillar is go to the right side right into the water keep going deeper until you find a lot of rocks (there’s a lot of rocks there so if you can’t find rocks there meaning you’re in the wrong spot or something) it’s a little hard to search that spot because of the rock but there are a lot of didn’t things like eels and dunkleosteus and those water things that you can build a base well I found some anyway be on a ichthy

Dunkleos are like aquatic dire bears. Get too close to it and it will attack you. However they can be outswimmed by everyting in the ocean.

Bigger than you think this rocky shark is but it turns really slow so you have time to escape

PS the “teeth” aren’t really teeth; they’re actually bony plates and are a part of its skull.
