Quick Glance: Huge marine reptile fossils discovered by British girl and father
- A fossil jawbone found by a British girl and her father on a beach in Somerset, England belongs to a gigantic marine reptile from the Triassic Period.
- Researchers estimated that the marine reptile, named Ichthyotitan severnensis, was between 22 and 26 meters long, making it one of the largest known marine reptiles.
- Ichthyotitan was part of a family of giant ichthyosaurs called Shastasauridae and survived until a global mass extinction event about 201 million years ago.
- The discovered bone fragment, the surangular, hints at the size and bite force of the animal, emphasizing the importance of each species in the delicate fabric of life.
