Colossal pliosaur sea monster skull goes on display – BBC News


The skull of a colossal sea monster that was unearthed from the Jurassic Coast in the UK is going on display.

The 2m-long fossil belongs to a pliosaur – one of the most fearsome predators the planet has ever seen.

Sir David Attenborough investigated the discovery in a BBC film which aired on New Year’s Day.

The public can see the 150-million-year-old marine reptile at the Etches Collection in Kimmeridge in Dorset, close to where the beast was found.
