Scientists say that a newly discovered ichthyosaurthat lived 200 million years ago in the Triassic period was potentially the biggest to ever live.  

It was about 25 metres or 82 feet long.  It is called Ichthyotitan severnensis and it lived during the end of the Triassic period.

the date of the death of this reptile is false. It probably died in the Flood of Noah’s time, some 4 500 years ago.
