Well, I'll have to pass this on to my kids. At least two of them had declared the dunkleostus to be their favorite extinct animal when they were younger. (I think it has something to do with the name as well as the fearsome jaws.)

Quint: I value my life a whole lot more than $3,000 chief. I'll find him for three but I'll catch him and kill him for ten. For that you get the head, the tail, the whole damn thing.

To: OSHA
