Creature From The Deep

Do you know what a plesiosaur is? Maggy Horvath operates a huge shovel in northern Alberta's oil sands. She recently dug up the remains of a huge 100 million year old sea creature! The name of the creature is a plesiosaur. Plesiosaurs are predators and it is really rare to find fossils of predators. There are fewer predators than than there are prey. Dan Henderson was thrilled to hear about the find and from the shape of the bones he could tell what kind of animal the dinosaur was. Now do you like sea creatures more than you did before?
