Happy #fossilfriday!

This is a cast of Cryptoclidus at the palaeontological collection of the University of Tübingen.

These Jurassic marine reptiles were perfectly adapted to their environment, possessing four hydrofoil-like flippers that allowed them to efficiently ‘fly’ through the water.

Life reconstruction based on the mounted skeleton (IGPB R 324) on display at the Goldfuß-Museum in Bonn. ⚒️
