  1. It still blows my mind to contemplate the incomprehensibly large amount of time ago that these creatures lived. All of human existence could fit 100 times over into the time since these magnificent beasts lived, and modern humans 1000 times or more. And yet I still feel some sympathy for that baby icthyosaur, just minding its own business tens of millions of years ago, when this massive beast chewed it up and ended its life. I wonder if they felt fear or pain? Whenever I hear of a prehistoric creature that died with another creature in its belly, I always wonder what the predator died of.

  2. Maybe if he didn't put it about so much, situations like this could be avoided ;-)
