Description

Beautifully modelled and finished range of dinosaur toys and prehistoric toy models from CollectA. Hand-painted and finely detailed. A great range to collect for any dinosaur fanatic!

Most Elasmosaurus pictures have this animal with its head sticking out of the waves, which paleontologists now know is an impossibility for this animal to have done that. The only way it could have done something like that was if it was in a shallow lake, otherwise, it would’ve been impossible for it to lift anything other than its small head above the waves.

Another one of the most interesting facts about Elasmosaurus was that it was also incapable of moving its head like a snake. While early paleontologists may have thought it could move its neck like a snake, modern paleontologists now know that is an impossibility.  Elasmosaurus was only able to hold its neck out straight, anything else wouldn’t have been possible.
