Rare fossils reveal prehistoric ‘crime scene’ in outback Queensland | ABC NEWS
A tourist family has discovered a prehistoric ‘crime scene’ involving a marine reptile eating one of its flying cousins before being killed by an apex marine predator in Australia’s inland sea.
The 100-million-year-old bones of an ichthyosaur, pterosaur and kronosaurus were found in Richmond’s Kronosaurus Korner.
University of New England associate researcher Matt White says the rare discovery is ‘extraordinary’ because it sheds light on the behaviour of these prehistoric animals.
