Spinosaurus was featured in Jurassaic Park III I believe. Just to clarify animals that lived in water during the Mesozoic like Plesiosauru were marine reptiles not dinosaurs.

And when we look at the body proportions, the animal was clearly not as agile on land as other dinosaurs were, so I think it spent a substantial amount of time in the water. The poor thing probably had self-esteem issues. It spent so much time in the water because the other dinosaurs laughed at it.

And in Kenya... scientists have unearthed the remains of the WIMPOSAURUS, a species THOUGHT to be totally extinct.
But, a single example of this species does exist. It has been sited in Washington D.C.
There is little empirical or documented, historic data on this creature. It is known to have the smallest brain and largest oral cavity of all known species.
Many hypotheses exist as to its origin, but nothing has been scientifically verified.

How did the first swimming dino “evolve” paddle like feet?

Just wondering why we call marine animals like mosasaur a “marine reptile” when there is evidence they may be homeothermic and endothermic like birds and mammals?

Scientists say the beast had flat, paddle-like feet and nostrils on top of its crocodilian head that would allow it to submerge with ease.

From the article:
"One of the things about this paper that struck me as particularly neat was the suggestion that Spinosaurus was a quadruped - all other meat-eating dinosaurs were bipeds. Sure looks like it would be from the skeleton mock-up.
Think the folk from Jurassic Park III got it wrong.

Did it use all those dangling bits as bait to attract the "huge fish and sharks"?
