The Plesiosaurus was a marine reptile that is now extinct. They were around 15ft long, which is twice the size of a horse. They had incredibly strong jaws and very sharp teeth. They ate fish, squids and other sea creatures, as well as land animals who went into the water for a swim. The Plesiosaurus had four fins, two on either side of their body. They used these by flapping them up and down, much like seals do today. Although it is thought they weren’t actually very good swimmers.
