African Rock Painting May Depict Animal Extinct for 200 Million Years | 7 Days of Science
Description: A 200-year-old South African rock painting might depict a long-extinct kind of animal called a dicynodont! Also in the news: prehistoric pygmy hippos in Cyprus are found to have been wiped out by ancient humans, a major study has reconstructed the earth’s temperature over the last 485 million years, and much more!
