Brancasaurus lived in a huge freshwater lake, not the ocean. The lake was sometimes connected to the sea.1

Its neck bones had tall, shark-fin-shaped spines on top, which is unusual for plesiosaurs.1

The first fossil was found by workers digging clay with pickaxes in 1910. They accidentally broke the hip bone into 176 pieces.1

Brancasaurus was about 3.26 metres (10.7 feet) long as a subadult. Adults may have been a bit bigger.1

Another plesiosaur named Gronausaurus wegneri is now thought to be the same as Brancasaurus, just a different growth stage.1 2

Brancasaurus shared its lake with sharks, crocodiles, turtles, and many kinds of fish.1

Mafunso ofunsidwa kwambiri okhudza Brancasaurus

?Was Brancasaurus a dinosaur?

No, Brancasaurus was a plesiosaur, a type of marine reptile that lived in the time of the dinosaurs, but it was not a dinosaur itself.1 3

?How big was Brancasaurus?

The most complete fossil, a subadult, was about 3.26 metres (10.7 feet) long. Adults may have been a bit bigger.1 4 3

?What did Brancasaurus eat?

Brancasaurus likely hunted fish near the surface of the water, such as Caturus, Lepidotes, and Callopterus.1 3

?Where did Brancasaurus live?

Brancasaurus lived in a large freshwater lake in what is now Germany, during the Early Cretaceous period. The lake was sometimes connected to the sea.1 4 3

Akukambiranabe: Scientists are not sure whether Brancasaurus belongs to the elasmosaurid family or the leptocleidid family. Different studies give different answers.1 2
