Scientists discover one of the Earth's earliest animals in Australian outback

In the shadow of South Australia's largest mountain range beneath the outback soil lies a fossil record that reveals a rich history of life on Earth. Fossils found at Nilpena Ediacara National Park preserve a pivotal moment in the history of evolution: the crucial period during which single-celled organisms began to evolve into the planet's first complex, visible animals.

It lay in wait, its jaws open wide, preparing to clamp down its interlocking jaws on any prey unwise enough to swim past. Meet Gaiasia jennyae, the swamp creature with a toilet seat-shaped head.

Recently I’ve become fossil obsessed amongst other things, most of the time I don’t know what I’m looking at but I know it’s a fossil of some description. Also got a rock app on my phone to identify sedimentary rocks so I supposed I’m a bit obsessed with that too. Any fossil ID help would be much appreciated and age of them even better.

"Our new research adds another piece to that picture: a large sabretooth cat whose long, curved canines made it a powerful predator. It was already known that several genera of sabretooth cat roamed the area around Langebaanweg – now we can add another, previously undescribed species." @TheConversationAfrica #SouthAfrica #palaentology #research #fossils

Sabretooth cats hunted on South Africa's coast 5 million years ago: this old one was in pain

A closer look at these fossil bones revealed more than the suggestion of a previously undescribed species - it pointed to the individual animal having suffered with osteoarthritis.
