Asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs led to the invention of ‘ant agriculture’

This picture shows a very famous outcrop where nearly horizontal black and white layers are observed. The BIC made of layers of igneous rock in a basin shape, formed over a period of about 1 million years, after which it seems to have barely changed.

A new discovery by a team of paleontologists, led by Dr. Mathieu Boisville (University of Tsukuba, Japan), has uncovered a new species of the extinct genus Ontocetus from the Lower Pleistocene deposits in the North Atlantic.

Extinct Walrus-Like Species Discovered: New Insights into Marine Mammal Evolution

On the left is a parent of the early mammal Dryolestes which raises a brood after reaching sexual maturity at age four. On the right is a Haldanodon, a member of the family of mammal-like docodonts, before fully reaching the mammalian evolutionary level; the creature's lifespan was eleven to fourteen years.

Early mammals lived longer

The pterosaur likely used all four limbs to propel itself in the air, as seen in bats today, researchers have found.
