Chapter 691 The evolution of cetaceans! From land to sea (please order!)

Under the watchful eyes of tens of millions of water friends.

First-person footage of Yang Xu underwater.

It was actually approaching the huge ‘Dragon-like King Whale’!

And things like whale sharks, blue whales, humpback whales and even killer whales.

compared to larger marine creatures.

This creature is similar to the dragon king whale, with a pitifully small head.

Occupy a very small proportion of the body.

So much so that, in the early days, when the bones of the dragon king whale were first discovered in America.

related researchers.

Not sure if this is a marine mammal.

because of its long bones.

and relatively short limb bones.

Coupled with a smaller proportion of head bones.

13 looked like a giant sea snake with four legs.

Therefore, the dragon king whale was in the early stage when the bone fossils were discovered.

It was once thought to be a huge marine reptile.

before that.

Yang Xu once mentioned this to the sand sculpture netizens in the live broadcast room.

But netizens have different opinions on this.

[Good guy, thanks to the earliest dragon king whale bone fossil, it was not unearthed in Xia Kingdom. ”

[That’s not true. I have seen the pictures on the Internet of the bone fossil of the dragon king whale. If it was unearthed in our Xia Kingdom, I might really think that there are dragons living in the ocean][Perhaps… the ancients have seen dragon king whales or their fossils? Maybe our so-called dragons are indeed some ancient creatures?)

[Brother in front of you, what you said is extremely terrifying~)

This is indeed the case.

Although some of the water friends’ comments are just speculations.

But in a way.

Sharks that live in the ocean are a good example.

Whether it is the ancient famous “megalodon shark”

0

Or the ‘mechanical tooth shark’ with all kinds of odd-shaped teeth

These creatures are traversing the river of time.

left in the geology.

Just the teeth.

Because sharks belong to the “Cartilaginous Fish Class”, bones do not leave fossils.

If there was a creature in ancient times that could not even keep its teeth.

Well, at least in human cognition.

Even if the science of paleogeology and paleontology has developed to today.

The kind of ‘conceived creatures that don’t leave fossils behind.

It’s as if it never happened.

Because, in the river of time where the epochs change endlessly.

They never left a trace for future generations to explore.

However, the “Dragon King Whale” is different. As a mammal, the Dragon King Whale has the “limbs” of the earliest bone fossils discovered.

Because it has degenerated, it has become extremely short.

Paleontologists are very interested in this.

After all, in the fossil bones found before.

Sea creatures do not grow “legs”.

Therefore.

in subsequent studies of bone fossils.

And more fossil bones of ‘ancient cetaceans’ creatures have been found.

The evidence that cetaceans moved from land into the sea “‘ also became more solid.

Unquestionably.

People first learned about it.

These behemoths that live in the ocean.

It is when the land enters the sea.

Actually very subversive.

After all, in the study of paleontological fossils over several epochs.

The journey of all creatures is from the ocean to the land, whether it is pigs, horses, cattle, sheep or humans.

The source of life is water.

But the evolution of whales.

But the opposite.

After going through evolution and landing on land.

Ancient cetaceans are gradually returning to the sea.

Therefore.

“Dragon King Whale” is a creature.

It can be regarded as a link that supports the evolution of cetaceans.

the other side.

Yang Xu’s first perspective shot.

Getting closer and closer to that dragon king whale-like creature!

At this moment.

In the minds of all sand sculpture netizens.

There is only one question!

If you keep getting close.

Will these dragon king whales attack?
