The nothosaurus is a particularly aggressive marine dinosaur.
It dwells in tropical seas, always seeking prey.
It lumbers on its flippers when on land but swims rapidly.
When in a frenzy it will lash with its huge foreflippers,
causing damage only to soft-skinned or small creatures.
Its usual attack is a darting bite, the long neck moving the head at great SPEED.
