Green=Nile Croc average. Grey=Nile Croc max. I made the Grizzly a little too tall, so remember that the Croc is slightly bigger than shown here.

A quick scale to show how large an ichthyosaur with 45.7 cm vertebrae would be(Shastasaurus has 22 cm vertebrae, and is 21 meters long, this means that the giant ichthyosaur is more than double the dimensions!):

^Where's the evidence that an icthyosaur had 45.7 cm vertebral centra? Is this from some other thread? By the way, I believe most current renditions of Shastasaurus make it far less bulky than your image above and probably less than 21 meters. But I'd be interested if you showed me something to the contrary.

You should place this in the fiction part of the forum.

There's no conclusion about this large vertebras and no size can be indicated.

And the largest ichthyosaurs known are all much, much more slender than this outdated depiction.

南白犀(Ceratotherium simum)
the southern white rhinoceros (Ceratotherium simum) and the northern white rhinoceros. As of 31 December 2007, there were an estimated 17,480 southern white rhino in the wild (IUCN 2008), making them the most abundant subspecies of rhino in the world. South Africa is the stronghold for this subspecies (93.0%), conserving 16,255 individuals in the wild in 2007 (IUCN 2008). There are smaller reintroduced populations within the historical range of the species in Namibia, Botswana, Zimbabwe and Swaziland, while a small population survives in Mozambique. Populations have also been introduced outside of the former range of the species to Kenya, Uganda and Zambia.

White rhinos in Taman Safari, IndonesiaWild-caught southern whites will readily breed in captivity given appropriate amounts of space and food, as well as the presence of other female rhinos of breeding age. For instance, 91 calves have been born at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park since 1972. However, for reasons that are not currently understood, the rate of reproduction is extremely low among captive-born southern white females.

At least for now, south white rhino still keep a certain amount,if we more meticulous research and protection for they, so it is likely to be completely from the get rid of danger of extinct.

北白犀(Ceratotherium cottoni)
The northern white rhino (Ceratotherium cottoni), formerly found in several countries in East and Central Africa south of the Sahara, is considered Critically Endangered or Extinct in the Wild.

In fact, wild populations have may complete extinction. northern white rhino of the artificial environment, individual number only a few.

So, at present, north white rhino has been unable to continue to keep its population. This species has been unable to get rid of the fate of extinction.

A comparison of a Lion and Smilodon Fatalis (Skeletons):

I like this pic because it shows the difference in robusticity between a Smilodon and a member of Panthera.
I got this from "The Big Cats and their fossil relatives"; a great book for Cat-lovers.

I promised this a while ago.
Now finally found the time to make it, with Livyatan(dorsal fin added by me) completing the picture (the 18,5m is a personally speculated max size, hence the mark by the figure).
All creatures are at their max sizes..the 15.5m Megalodon and Livyatan are added for the purpose of comparison at parity length.
Anyway, it took some effort so i hope you enjoy it:
