Is that a velociraptor for scale? The most confusingly-sized dinosaur thanks to Jurassic Park?

I'm not sure, but you could ask the artist who drew the picture for the article

Dinosaur of unknown size added for scale.

Misread the title as “An 11-Year-Old Gilr’s Fossil “Found IN* the Largest Known Ocean Reptile”, and thought we were about to get a major shakeup of the dinosaur timeline, or a time travel mystery.

An 82-foot icthyosaur that they think hadn't even finished growing when it died. Holy shit.

Imagine an animal rivaling the length of a blue whale, but that was (I'm guessing) an actively-hunting apex predator, not a filter-feeder.
