04-23-09 - Mitchell Schools craft 100-million-year-old sea-dinosaur replica. OPLI news release | Oregon Paleo Lands Institute

With the guidance of paleontologists and renowned dinosaur sculptor Larry Williams, students at Mitchell School, Mitchell, Oregon, are constructing a half-size replica of a 24-foot-long plesiosaur, along with an exhibit about the animal, its environment, and changes in the landscape since it lived along Oregon's ancient beach, 100 million years ago. The ancient marine dinosaur was one of the largest and fastest marine predators that ever lived. The sculpture and exhibit will be completed in late May, and open to the public at the Oregon Paleo Lands Institute Field Center in Fossil, Oregon on July 4.
