Kelphus are often found in swamps, where they hunt fish. They do this by standing still with their head in striking position; their body casts a shadow that attracts prey.
[Zorse, Monitor Lizard, Crane, Plesiosaur]

We have some fossils preserving soft tissue (including a polyctylid) showing plesiosaurs actually had pretty slim necks and that most of the fat was around the tail and front flippers

And also, here's a cute little OC that came to mind which I really liked! A big Plesiosaur girl named Udon! 🍥

I like this so much I might make more plesiosaurs based on soups and such haha

This was meant to be a rough concept of Albertonectes dragging away a juvi rex, then I found out the Bearpaw is from the latest Campanian. So it's Albertonectes dragging away a juvi Daspletosaurus.

May return to the concept with a spec, indet. Maastrichtian plesiosaur.

“Mosasaurs or plesiosaurs???” 😤😡

Neither, Shonisaurus supremacy 😎

I’ve been adding trailing soft tissue at the base of the flippers of my plesiosaurs like what turtles have. It’s like a plane wing underwater, more hydrodynamic

Part 5 of my teratophilia comic

Ulysses collected the eggs of the deceased plesiosaur and waited for his mate to fall asleep. Once she did he swapped the unfertilized eggs with the orphaned ones so Nau wouldn’t notice

On one of his patrols, Ulysses found the body of a dead plesiosaur monster. Her eggs were mysteriously unharmed, but without a mother these unborn babies have no chance of survival
