1

Plesiosaurus was named in 1821 by William Conybeare and Henry Thomas De la Beche, and the name means 'near reptile'.1

2

Mary Anning discovered an almost complete Plesiosaurus skeleton in 1823, which helped scientists understand what these animals looked like.1

3

Plesiosaurs swam with four flipper-like limbs, and experiments with robot flippers showed they could generate 60% more thrust from their back flipper by timing both limbs carefully.1

4

Plesiosaurs were unable to return to land, so they likely gave birth to live young in the open water, as supported by a preserved foetus in a related species.1

5

Plesiosaurs survived for more than 140 million years, making it through multiple extinctions that wiped out other groups.1

6

Some plesiosaurs swallowed stones that stayed in their stomachs, possibly to help break up food or to help with buoyancy.1
