Most Dinosaurs More Like Barney Than T. Rex [2010-10-06] Dinosaurs might not have been the mighty conquerors that everyone thinks they were. Instead of overwhelming the world with force, dinosaurs might have instead moved in when no one was looking. www.kjvbible.org
2 new dinosaur species discovered in southern Utah [2010-09-23] Scientists say they've discovered fossils in the southern Utah desert of two new dinosaur species closely related to the Triceratops, including one with 15 horns on its large head.(AP) www.kjvbible.org
Utility company near L.A. finds fossil trove up to 1.4M years old [2010-09-22] A utility company preparing to build a new substation in an arid canyon southeast of Los Angeles has stumbled on a trove of animal fossils dating back 1.4 million years that researchers say will fill in blanks in Southern California's history.(AP) www.kjvbible.org

Fossils point to animal life 100m years earlier than thought [2010-08-17] Scientists have found what might be the oldest physical evidence of the existence of animals on Earth.
The fossils of primitive, sponge-like creatures that once lived in ocean reefs off south Australia push back the time at which scientists think the first animal life evolved on Earth by almost 100m years.
The fossilised remains of the 1cm-long sponges in rocks dated at 640-650m years old were found by Adam Maloof, a geologist at Princeton University.
If correct, his finding, published todayin Nature Geoscience, would mean that animal life probably existed before the Marinoan glaciation, an era when the entire planet was covered in ice.
Sponges are simple filter-feeders that extract their food from water as it flows through specialised body channels. подробнее... www.topix.com
Possible discovery of earliest animal life pushes back fossil record [2010-08-17] In findings that push back the clock on the scientific world's thinking about when animal life appeared on Earth, Princeton scientists may have discovered the oldest fossils of animal bodies, suggesting that primitive sponge-like creatures were living in ocean reefs about 650 million years ago. подробнее... www.eurekalert.org
