Upon emerging into the lake, both Cretaceous and Maelstrom encountered their first prey animal: a glyptodon named Stu, who was swimming in the lake until both reptiles caught Stu and devoured him, leaving behind only his shell and swimming off further through the lakes after their next meal.Ĭretaceous is stopped from attacking Manny.Ĭretaceous and Maelstrom lose their temper Having been in stasis for one million years, both reptiles had developed an intense hunger and were quick to seek out prey in this new world, dominated by mammals, which both reptiles found as more of a challenge to pursue than the reptiles of their era. The ice melted, releasing both Maelstrom and Cretaceous into the lake, which was all but abandoned by most animals. Within Maelstrom's digestive tract were several parasites: a number of stunted giant single-celled organisms and a large parasite with multiple eyes and a beak.After all that time, however, the great block of ice that contained both reptiles was jarred loose when the wall of ice that it was attached to began crumbling, landing in a vast lake at the end of a valley. Maelstrom was a large pliosaur, thickly built with a large mouth filled with sharp teeth ideal for breaking bone, faintly glowing yellow eyes and armour-like teal scales that were topped off with spikes and bumps, propelled through the icy waters with large, flat fins. Maelstrom, like Cretaceous, was incapable of speech and so communicated in loud growls or roars. Maelstrom was also shown to be an opportunistic predator, as he targeted Sid and Diego when they were separated from the others of the herd. Cretaceous and Maelstrom were shown to be aggressive and relentless when pursuing their prey, and they got angry easily if it escaped from them. Maelstrom and Cretaceous were both vicious, hostile, hot-tempered, impatient and ravenous. Although the two reptiles are presumed to have been crushed by the boulder, there might be a possibility that they may have survived the boulder and have gotten swept away with the flood water when Scrat broke the glacier. The plan worked, freeing Ellie, and knocking the two reptiles down with the boulder. Manny devised a plan to rid himself of the two sea reptiles, by having them try to chase him, he tricked them into hitting a log that was wedged under a large rock. Later, when the dam broke, the two angry sea reptiles went swimming on the wall of water that was slowly approaching towards the escaping masses and Cretaceous pulled down Manny when he was swimming to save Ellie. Maelstrom intended to eat Sid but could not catch him, as Sid was already escaping with Diego, and had only just escaped Maelstrom as he broke off a massive chunk of ice where the sloth and saber-tooth had stood only moments before.

The two sea reptiles then swam further down the series of rivers where they eventually reached Manfred's herd as well as Crash, Eddie, and Ellie. When they made it to the ice lake, the first animal that they had encountered and eaten was Stu the glyptodont, leaving behind only his shell. The ice melted, releasing both Cretaceous and him into the lake which was all but abandoned by most animals.
Maelstrom is shown in the beginning frozen in a great block of ice that was jarred loose when the wall of ice began crumbling. Maelstrom is a Globidens that hunted animals during the Ice Age.Malestrom is one of the two main antagonists of Ice Age 2.
