I found he has been quoted many times regarding the Ichthyosaurs. I haven’t found any update from him since 2012.<br /><br />This site http://self.gutenberg.org/articles/ichthyosaurs#cite_note-11 has an interesting write-up that appears to come from “Crowd sourced content that is contributed to World Heritage Encyclopedia is peer reviewed and edited by our editorial staff to ensure quality scholarly research articles.” <br /><br />It is apparent that opinions differ but here we see a specific mention of “Triassic Ichthyosaurs” so I believe they existed in that period however interesting to note differing opinions on the subject of their demise.<br /><br />“Ichthyosaur fossils also show the animals were prone to the decompression sickness commonly referred to as the "Bends". Triassic Ichthyosaurs show no signs of such trauma, while later species from the Jurassic and Cretaceous show decompression sickness in many specimens. This may be due to the appearance of large predators such as large sharks during these later periods that forced ichthyosaurs into making emergency trips to the surface. The inability of Ichthyosaurs to handle such trauma from emergency surfacing is hypothesized by John Haymond, Bruce Rothschild et al to have helped contributed to their extinction, though opinions differ on why.”<br />Rosemary Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291661159622665464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-45130101818969377052015-06-27T08:23:04.879-07:002015-06-27T08:23:04.879-07:00Many times, life appears to give us much more abou...Many times, life appears to give us much more about what we are reading and looking.

I would agree that they do look the same as the image in this challenge.<br />https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caribbean_reef_shark#/media/File:Carcharhinus_perezi_bahamas_feeding.jpg<br /><br />I just saw Remjii’s response (very clever) referring back to the June 2014 image posted. However this link would suggest to me that the shark might not be a black-tip because as stated in this link (very similar but slight difference in anal fin)<br />http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/fish/gallery/descript/creefshark/creefshark.htm <br />“Blacktip (C. limbatus ): The blacktip shark has a pale white anal fin, unlike the dusky colored anal fin of the Caribbean reef shark .” They are obviously very similar in appearance. Here’s the page on the black-tip reef shark http://www.flmnh.ufl.edu/fish/Gallery/Descript/blacktip/blacktipshark.html<br />Rosemary Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12291661159622665464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-42174215613859631982015-06-24T14:04:55.396-07:002015-06-24T14:04:55.396-07:00source of Dan at the rail… sRs Thursday, June 5, 2...source of Dan at the rail… <a href="http://searchresearch1.blogspot.com/2014/06/comment-on-srs-challenges-uc-system-and.html" rel="nofollow">sRs Thursday, June 5, 2014</a>remmijhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17985809654574916217noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4953008377950396317.post-81795101415076075272015-06-24T13:54:30.728-07:002015-06-24T13:54:30.728-07:00Question 2 and 3

Speaking of kinds of sharks, one of the strangest sharks in the ocean today seems to be a holdover from the Cretaceous period. What kind of shark is that? Just from that description, can you figure out the genus and species? <br />A: Frilled Shark. Genus:Chlamydoselachus. Species:C. anguineus<br /><br />Q3.

In the Late Cretaceous ichthyosaurs became extinct for unknown reasons.<br /><br />3.I remember reading that there was an order of now-extinct marine reptiles that dominated the seas during late Triassic and the Jurassic periods. These giant predators were warm-blooded, and sometimes suffered from the problems of coming up too fast from the briny deep. What kind of animals were these? And how do we know they suffered from too rapid ascents? <br />A.
