The ancient marine reptile is a plesiosaur, a 26ft aquatic carnivore that would have once been found all across the world\'s oceans.

SameerPrehistorica Posted December 10, 2013 #11 Share Posted December 10, 2013 That was my favorite dinosaur as a kid. Actually, it still is. ^-^ That is not a Dinosaur.It is a Plesiosaur. My favorite was the brontosaurus, but it doesn't exist anymore. I haven't picked a new one yet. Your favorite Animal is still there. It's just the name is changed from Brontosaurus to Apatosaurus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qxcontinuum Posted December 10, 2013 #12 Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) I have such of big problem with the year suggested ranges... 130 million years, yesh...both isotop and carbon dating tehnologies are not peviding accurate readings and they could be influenced by so many factors Edited December 10, 2013 by qxcontinuum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
budica Posted December 11, 2013 #13 Share Posted December 11, 2013 I have such of big problem with the year suggested ranges... 130 million years, yesh...both isotop and carbon dating tehnologies are not peviding accurate readings and they could be influenced by so many factors Hate to tell you this but they don't need to use either of those technologies to put a rough estimate on the date. Its all from the layers the fossil was found in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harte Posted December 28, 2013 #17 Share Posted December 28, 2013 Your favorite Animal is still there. It's just the name is changed from Brontosaurus to Apatosaurus. Yeah, but "Apatoburger" just doesn't have the same ring to it. Harte Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
