This photo of a Kronosaurus skeleton was taken at Museo El Fósil (a fossil museum) in Villa de Lleyva, Colombia. The short-necked plesiosaur from the Cretaceous period, related to the crocodile, was discovered in 1977. It is is a large fossil–around 20 feet long–and it’s approximately 115 million years (give or take a few mill) old.
The museum is a small one, but worth a visit if you’re in the area.
Can’t get enough?

I always find dinosaur like things really creepy. They freak me out somewhat. This photos captures the creepiness factor.
Me, too. This one was quite huge. Glad the photo captured the creepiness!
