Find the remains of a giant "marine monster" in Kansas
The famous mozzas in the world of Jurassic World returned to life once a fossil of a modern 85 million-year-old creature was discovered in the US state of Kansas.
A sample of Telosaurus, a species of watercress, has been identified and examined, the Fox News website said, adding that researchers are analyzing its broken bones, including its upper jaw.
"Its length is about 13 meters," the study said.
"It was found in western Kansas in 1991, but it was believed to be Blacktapus, before we discovered what it was."
The study's principal investigator, Takuya Konishi, a professor at the University of Cincinnati, was able to determine the type of fossils after examining her long snout and sharp teeth.
The length of some other forms of the mosaic can be up to 15 meters, beyond the weight of 30 thousand pounds.
