SEA MONSTERS
Monsters of the Deep
Sea monsters are not just imaginary creatures. Millions of years ago, real monsters did actually live on Earth.
Today, scientists use fossils to help them figure out what these monsters were like. The fossils can help us understand some of the animals' unusual characteristics. After studying the fossils, the scientists can make very detailed pictures of these animals. So now, we can all see what they looked like.
Eyes in the Dark
Temnodontosaurus was definitely an unusual animal. Its name means "cutting-tooth lizard," and with good reason—it had very big teeth. It also had some of the largest eyes in nature. They were over 25 centimeters  (10 inches) across! With such big eyes, Temnodontosaurus could easily find its food in the dark water.
Terror of the Deep
Kronosaurus—the "Kronos lizard"—lived in the seas that covered Australia. But it probably used its fins to climb out  of the water and lay its eggs on land. Its head was two meters (seven feet) long. Its teeth were as big as bananas! The main function of strong jaws and teeth like these was to catch smaller animals. In fact, Kronosaurus was one of the most dangerous predators of all time.
The Stalker
Known as the "lord of the seas," Thalassomedon was a large sea monster with a very long neck. It also had a special means of catching fish: It carried stones in its stomach! These helped keep the largest part of its body  and tail down in the dark water. Meanwhile, its long neck slowly rose up toward the fish. The fish didn't have a chance to get away from Thalassomedon. They didn't see the sea monster until it was too late!
Why did the fish not have a chance to get away from Thalassomedon?
A.The fish were very slow swimmers.
B.The fish thought Thalassomedon was friendly.
C.The fish didn’t see Thalassomedon as it came near.
D.The fish didn’t try to escape.
