In actuality, plesiosaurs were not dinosaurs, but aquatic reptiles, which ruled the seas during the Mesozoic era. There were two main types of plesiosaurs, both of which had broad bodies, four large flippers, and short tails. The two groups were distinct in that one had long necks and small heads, the other short necks and large heads. The plesiosaurs ranged in size from 8 to 46 feet long, and their diets consisted of fish and other marine creatures. The first plesiosaur fossil was discovered in 1824, and subsequent findings have been made on every continent. Incredible, eh wot? Indeed! What I wouldn't do to dig one up myself! The thrill! Where in blazes is my shovel? Hoo hoo hoo! Oh, my! I must beg your pardon. The very idea of field work gets my crumpets toasting!}} | |

In New Leaf[edit]
After donating the final part of the fossil in New Leaf, its plaque in the museum will read:
"While not a dinosaur itself, the plesiosaur, a marine reptile, did live alongside the dinosaurs. These creatures could reach lengths of 23 feet or longer, the bulk of that being their long necks. Plesiosaurs are commonly mistaken for certain kinds of mythical sea monsters, such as "Nessie.""

Real-world information[edit]
Plesiosaurs were a group of Mesozoic marine reptiles. They first evolved 203 million years ago, and there is evidence that they diversified rapidly in the next 2 million years, even as other animals were wiped out by the Triassic-Jurassic extinction event. They remained diverse throughout the Jurassic and Cretaceous, and could be found in oceans worldwide. They went extinct 66 million years ago, in the same extinction event that killed the non-avian dinosaurs.
More information on this topic is available at Wikipedia.
The specific genus of plesiosaur in-game is identified as Futabasaurus. This species lived around 85 million years ago in modern-day Japan. It is a member of the elasmosaurids, plesiosaurs with unusually long necks (with some species having over 70 neck vertebrae). Futabasaurus has been estimated to reach 6.4-9.2 meters and weigh 3-4 tonnes. Based on the bones in the type specimen, it is likely that they were hunted by sharks.
