Orthoceras are the fossilized form of marine animal that have got
extinct and belongs to Cephalopod family. These were found in the past
about 500 million of years ago and are the ancestors of octopus and
squid that are the modern marine animals. The length of these fossils
ranges from some inches to above 6 feet. These were having the ability
to crawl as well as swim on the floor of the oceans. This was happened
because of the air that got filled in their shells which made them
float. Like the squid that is found today, these fossils had ink sacs
and tentacles. After these got dead, their shells were seen mounted up
on the floor of the seas, covered by the sediments. These were then
converted into stone.
