Best Answer

Sauropods were far larger than any living animals. Scientists at the time didn't think any animal could support that much weight on legs, so they though it must have lived halfway submerged.

What name do you called for water dinosaurs?

First of all, the true definition of a dinosaur is a terrestrial vertebrate reptile. This means that they all lived on land. None of them flew (but some were able to glide and evolve into birds) and none of them lived in the sea, but could have swam short distances. The correct term for the animals who lived in the seas during the time of the dinosaurs is "Sea Reptiles." These are split into two main groups; the icthyosaurs, which are more fish- like and adept to the water, and the plesiosaurs and pliosaurs, which more represent the sauropod and theropod dinosaurs with which they lived alongside.
