The bite force of Deinosuchus has been estimated to be 18,000 N (1,835 kgf; 4,047 lbf) [8] to 102,803 N (10,483 kgf; 23,111 lbf). [19] Deinosuchus had a secondary bony palate, which would have permitted it to breathe through its nostrils while the rest of the head remained submerged underwater. [20]

P. kirkpatricki compared to a human. Postosuchus was one of the largest carnivorous reptiles during the late Triassic. The length of the paratype is estimated up to 3.5–4 m (11–13 ft) long, [3] and an individual of such length would have measured 2 metres (6.6 ft) tall at the head when stood upright and weighed around 250–300 kilograms (550–660 lb).
