A turtle found in the skull of an Elephant
From time to time, paleontologists come across strange finds that can only be called a game of nature. They even came up with a special Latin term for this, lusus naturae. What should a scientist think when looking at a turtle fossil stuck in the jaw of a petrified elephant? .of course, that these very elephants ate these turtles. In fact, it was probably the other way around. It is known that turtles willingly gnaw bones, because they contain calcium, which is very necessary for the shell. Most likely, this turtle also found an elephant's skull somewhere, started eating... but something went wrong. What, unfortunately, we don't know yet.
