75 million years ago, there really were sea monsters, and the Elasmosaurus from was one of them. Known for having an extremely long neck, the first paleontologists thought its neck was a tail, which propelled it through the water. The Elasmosaurus grew up to 50 feet in length. It probably lived in the open seas, where it gave birth to live young. Our Elasmosaurus figurine is part of the Wild Safari Dinosaur and Prehistoric Life Collection, which features replicas on a slightly smaller scale than our Carnegie Collection and were designed to introduce young minds to the fascinating landscapes and creatures of the prehistoric world.
