I know this is a joke but all land vertebrates have roughly the same number of vertebrae. A long neck means longer vertebrae, not more.

Sure enough I just looked and giraffe vertebrae are 10" long. Weird.

We know from recent excavations in Utah that there was a centipede type and a hydra type.
It's why we always found so many "partial" skeletons together...
