Day 28: Skeletal

It’s a magical liopleurodon.

Thankful we don’t share the water with these guys anymore - or mosasaurs, spinosaurus, plesiosaurs, ichthyosaurs, etc. etc. etc. I had a hard time choosing which one to draw.

Liopleurodon ferox

A large headed pliosaur from the late Jurassic. Noted for its gargantuan size in the documentary Walking with Dinosaurs, it could grow to a more modest ~30ft.

It was an ambush hunter that targeted sizeable fish, cephalopods, and other marine reptiles.
