there may be..have you searched ALL of Africa?
From the article, it seems like they found a real carcass.
Or did they find the imprint of a carcass...how could they
know about the anatomy unless all of it was imprinted in
the surrounding rock? How did they determine there was
ink? Wouldn’t that decay also?
Not very good information from the WND report, will need to
read real article in journal.
P.S. with epigenetics a new field, mapping the genome
may not tell as much as one would want in terms of
evolutionary relationships. Not to mention, there are
normally occuring mutations which don’t change a phenotype,
but just seemingly hang around, so mapping the genome
doesn’t necessarily tell you where on the evolutionary
tree(lawn?) the ex-organism lies(no pun intended).
Yeah, I read it from DevNet’s link.
If you can prove Farah wrong, you should do so, LOL.
We used to swim with them in Jamaica Bay (below JFK Airport). That's fun once you realize they don't bite or sting.
