Prehistoric Kraken Made Portrait out of Dino Bones

Yep. Krakens.

An American paleontologist claims that a giant, prehistoric marine invertebrate that can only really be described as a "kraken" (seriously) killed nine marine dinosaurs and arranged their remains into a self-portrait in a region in Nevada known for its fossils. This is, let us say, freaking awesome, if true. Mark McMenamin of Mount Holyoke College says the remains of nine 45-foot-long icthyosaurs found in Nevada's Berlin-Icthyosaur State Park were arranged to look somewhat like a giant, 100-foot-long octopus-like creature that is believed to have ruled much of the seas that covered inland North America during the Triassic era. These massive "krakens" were believed to have been among the most intelligent invertebrates to have ever lived on the planet. McMenamin says one of these enormous creatures likely killed the ichtyosaurs then dragged them to his territory before arranging the decomposed dinosaur's vertebrae into what looked like tentacles with sucker discs on each of them. If McMenamin is right, then the remains would be the earliest-known self-portrait on the planet. Even if he's not right, it's still pretty insane that giant, 100-foot long octopi routinely killed dinosaurs the size of school buses.
