The 카지노 룰렛판y of a fossilized juvenile skeleton ofEocasea martinihas helped researchers understand how carnivores transitioned into 카지노 룰렛판 for the first time on land. The 300-million-year old skeleton is less than 20 cm long and consists of a partial skull, most of the vertebral column, the pelvis, and a hind limb. The researchers were able to compare the skeletal anatomy of related animals and conclude thatEocasea martinibelonged to the caseid branch of the group Synapsid. This group, which includes early terrestrial 카지노 룰렛판 and large top predators, ultimately evolved into modern living mammals. Read more inPLoS ONE.
