The fact that it actually might have been a plesiosaur was the unusual structure of the flippers, as well as that short head that actually looks a lot like a dinosaur skull. Despite the fact that it was almost nearly identified as a dinosaur, some people and scientists suspect it could be a basking shark, since they lose most of their lower jaw during the early stages of decay, but retain the dorsal fin, which the Zuiyō- Maru creature lacked.
