Model-a-saurus

Did you know Jurassic Warwickshire was covered a warm tropical sea - living here 170 million years ago would have been like living in the Bahamas. Living in this sea were different marine reptiles, to be a dinosaur you had to walk on dry land and not live in the sea. Some of the names of these marine reptiles are plesiosaur and ichthyosaur. You can see fossils from these creatures in the Warwickshire Museum.
