The
Plesiosaurus was a prehistoric reptile that lived in the sea and fed
mainly on fish. It wasn't just its long neck that made this dinosaur
stand out, but its swimming style: instead of using its paddle-shaped
fins to row, it moved forward by beating them like wings – just like a
sea turtle.
Fun Fact
