Scientists have discovered the fossil age of about 200 million years, which is in fact what happened paleobiological event, namely the attack camaroptera beings on the fish.
a Brief report on the study published on the website of Plymouth University (UK). Interestingly, the fossil was found on the South coast of England in the nineteenth century. She is currently held in the collections of the British geological survey in Nottingham.
Only today have studied the team, composed of employees of Plymouth and Kansas University, also based in Dorset the company The Forge Fossils. Fossilized karmarapture being scientists identified as Clarkeiteuthis montefiorei.
on closer examination they noticed that it holds in its jaws, a prehistoric fish that resembles a modern herring (Dorsetichthys bechei). Further study showed that this is not a random quirk of nature, and the prehistoric “the” actually occurred paleobiological events.
the Researchers made two versions. On one of them, prehistoric squid that I caught a fish, but it was too big for him. The prey is stuck in its jaws. Dead and the predator and the victim. They fell on the seabed, which kept them in its current form.
the Second version is that Clarkeiteuthis dragged their prey on the seabed to protect themselves from possible attack by another predator. But it was in the water layer with low oxygen content and a corny gasped.
the Authors believe that this is clearly an unsuccessful attack occurred in the period from 199 to 190 million years ago. They stress that such paleobiological “records” are extremely rare.
