— Allen Johnson, about Hybodus in Cruel Seas |
Hybodus (name meaning "Crooked Tooth") is a genus of hybodont shark that originated during the Late Devonian Era in what is now Europe. Measuring three meters long, this was a once wildly successful prehistoric shark.
Over the course of the series, Hybodus was encountered a number of times across certain timelines. With that, a number of individuals (from single individuals to as many as three at a time) were brought back to the park.
