| EXPLORE THE OCEAN WHICH ONCE COVERED KANSAS
|
| In Kansas, the Cretaceous Period, from about 135 million
| years ago to 65 million years ago, is represented by marine
| and estuarine deposits which are the product of a shallow
| inland sea. This shallow ocean was home to a variety of
| extinct marine animals such as giant clams, rudists, crinoids,
| squid, ammonites, numerous sharks, bony fish, turtles,
| plesiosaurs, mosasaurs, pteranodons, and marine birds. You
| can explore this ocean at the Oceans of Kansas Paleontology
| web site.
