Albertonectes was an extinct Late Cretaceous elasmosaur. This is arguably the longest plesiosaur known to date, with a length of 12 meters as well as a weight of up to 4.8 metric tons.^[1] It is known solely from the holotype TMP 2007.011.0001, a complete well preserved postcranial skeleton housed at the Royal Tyrrell Museum of Palaeontology in Drumheller, Alberta. The fossil includes 132 vertebrae totalling to a 7 meter neck and 97 gastroliths.^[2]
