The Ichthyosaurs, predatory sea reptiles, were rather like modern dolphins. They existed from the Early Triassic Period (250 million years ago) till the Middle Cretaceous Period (100 million years ago).
The dinosaur whose name means "fish lizard" is Ichthyosaurus. Ichthyosaurus was a marine reptile that lived during the Mesozoic Era, known for its streamlined body and large eyes, which made it well-suited for life in the ocean. It is often mistaken for a dinosaur but is actually part of a group of reptiles known as ichthyosaurs.
The Ichthyosaurus lived in the Western Atlantic Ocean.
yes
Charles Konig
The Ichthyosaurus was a dolphin-like creature that was found in water. Differences between the dolphin today and the Ichthyosaurus would be a longer snout and smaller dorsal fin.
They got there food by killing animals

yes your all going to die
Icthyosaurus died out around 93 million years ago. The cause of their extinction is unknown, but could have been climate change or, less likely, competition from plesiosaurs and mosasaurs.
ok. lets put it together here: dinosaur. aquatic. do you know what a dinosaur is? good. you should have answered yes. aquatic. AQUA. ??Aquafina? what is aquafina? YES YOU'RE RIGHT! it's waaaater. water. dinosaur. put it together. (a dinosaur that lives in the water)
The first dinosaur to die would have been one of the earliest species of dinosaurs that lived during the Triassic period, over 230 million years ago. As more and more dinosaur species evolved, the initial species eventually went extinct. It is not possible to pinpoint the exact species that was the first to die.
Icthyosaurs and plesiosaurs are referred to as marine reptiles. They were not closely related.
