Ichthyosaur Bites off More Than It Can Chew

 The ichthyosaur is an extinct dolphin-like reptile that was found with a full stomach because it ate an animal as long as it was. Scientists think that it broke its own neck while trying to eat it. Thrashing its prey around in their jaws is how they rip it up. https://www.sciencenewsforstudents.org/article/fossil-ichthyosaur-death-eating-long-creature

  1. I wonder what our oceans would be like if these animals didn't go extinct. Maybe we would have them and sharks competing for territory and food which would lead to fighting since they seem pretty similar or if they would just leave each other be.

  2. Scientests still do not know some of the animals that went extinct a long time ago. There are many different interesting facts that we, in the future, will be able to learn about. What do you think it would be like if some of those creatures were still around today?
