giant sea monsters

A new study finds that when describing marine organisms, popular culture makes people think that these animals are bigger than their actual size.

People living near the Bay of Plenty (New Zealand) discovered the first part of the monster about 9m long was washed ashore after several storms.

Kevan Sheehan (68), living in Osmingtton (England), collected fossil bones from this animal for five years from the first fossil bone fragments.
