Friday Creature Feature: Pencil-Necked Freaks
Happy Friday, everybody. Set peepers on these long-necked beauts…
Meet Mamenchisaurus. It’s a sauropod from the late Jurassic…whose neck was nearly as long its body and tail combined!
And you’ve met Tanystropheus before. It was a semi-aquatic pescatarian from the Triassic!
Finally, here’s a plesiosaur.
I just learned– as I was putting this post up– that they managed to survive for nearly all of the Mesozoic Era! Holy crap!
