Description

Ancient Sea Reptiles. Plesiosaurs, Ichthyosaurs, Mosasaurs & More. In the Mesozoic Era, while dinosaurs roamed on land, giant carnivorous reptiles ruled the seas. These enormous underwater creatures have enthralled the public imagination since Mary Anning discovered spectacular reptile skeletons on Dorset’s ‘Jurassic Coast’ in the early 1800s. Join palaeontologist Darren Naish on a tour of these incredible animals, ranging from shark shaped ichthyosaurs and long necked plesiosaurs to gigantic, predatory mosasaurs.
