Description: Pliosaurus is a genus of large, carnivorous marine reptiles that lived during the Jurassic period, about 145 to 156 million years ago. They were part of the pliosauroidea superfamily, and were some of the largest predatory marine reptiles of their time, with some species reaching lengths of up to 15 meters (49 ft). Pliosaurus had a short, broad skull, with large, sharp teeth and powerful jaws. They were probably apex predators in their marine environment, hunting and eating other large marine reptiles and fish. Pliosaurus is often referred as "short necked pliosaur" as it has shorter neck compared to pliosaurid like liopleurodon.
Description: In 1915 Georg-Günther Freiherr von Forstner, commander of submarine U-28, saw something unusual off the Irish coast. Shortly after torpedoing the British steamer Iberian, something within the sinking vessel exploded. Along with debris from the doomed Iberian a gigantic marine creature was thrown skywards - an animal which the astounded German captain could only liken to a goliath crocodile, and something that sounds very-much like a prehistoric marine reptile such as the 20 meter-long pliosaur Kronosaurus, which was the wolf of the sea 99 million years before the U-Boat came along. Whether there is any truth in this supposed sighting of a prehistoric monster, it certainly captures the imagination and deserves a teeshirt. And so do you!
