what was the name of the fish my geology teacher called “bad dude” because i put bad dude in my notes and have no idea what the real name is

update: 

this is the bad dude

it’s called dunkleosteus and it’s basically a tank with teeth

that is one bad dude

slam dunkleosteus

Interestingly, though the genus is named after a guy called Dunkle, if you break down the etymology of that name, dunkleosteus works out to something like “Dark Bone”.

So not only do they look like something you’d fight in a JRPG bonus dungeon, they’re named appropriately, too!
