Everything about Askeptosaurus totally explained
Askeptosaurus is an extinct genus of aquatic
reptile related to the
thalattosaurian group. It was about 2 m (6 ft 8 in) long. Their remains have been found in
Italy.
Askeptosaurus was a very thin, elongated creature that probably swam like an
eel. It steered using its webbed feet. Judging from its long
jaws, it was a
fish eater.
Paleontologists think
Askeptosaurus hunted in deep waters, based on its large
eyes (which would allow it to see better in dark water) and the protective bony ring around its them (also seen in
ichthyosaurs), which prevented them from getting squashed in by the immense
water pressure at great depths.
