Description More from our Glasgow trip, this beautiful plesiosaur ( Apractocleidus teretipes also known as Cryptoclidus eurymerus) graces the Hunterian Museum based in the stunning buildings of Glasgow University. The museum itself is a real treasure trove of geological significance, and was a wonderful place to visit. Full details of it being remounted can be found here:-www.natural-history-conservati… Taken on my Nokia 3 smartphone.

Awesome! I’m afraid that’s a plesiosaur, though.
