Descripción del artículo del vendedor

Paperback. Coelacanths were an ancient fish thought to be extinct from around the time the dinosaurs disappeared 65 million years ago (or so scientists said). This fish was shockingly discovered alive and well in 1938 (Not 65 million years old of course, but the ancestor of one of those long thought gone from planet Earth.) They are bottom-of-the-deep-ocean-dwellers which may account for their having not been found for so long in anything but fossils. The Coelacanth that may reach 6 feet long and weigh 200 pounds is called "The Living Fossil".What other mysterious, as-of-yet unknown creatures, other living fossils having hung tenaciously onto life since the time of the dinosaurs, lurk out of sight and out of time in those distant, murky, little explored, frigid ocean depths? No one knows all the creatures that God has created and may still be creating there in that watery Garden of Eden where time does not exist. Perhaps an unknown relative of the Leatherback Sea Turtle is one of those creatures that lived at the time of the dinosaurs, growing, and reproducing and evolving outside the view and knowledge of man like the Coelacanth did for ages without end. Perhaps someday the Desmatochelys Padillai, or even the colossal Archelon Ischyros ("Ruler turtle") itself will emerge from the cold, dark, unknown depths of ocean history to be yet another living fossil. Maybe the Leatherback that man has seen and recorded, some over eight feet long and around 2000 pounds are just mere shadows of another as-of-yet unknown family member. Some day it may swim up from the ocean trenches, an unheard of in millions of years relative of the Leatherback having adapted to and been changed by the pressure of ocean depths, of a size so enormous that its very appearance would be terrifying. One female on her instinctual journey back to the beach where she hatched seemingly eons ago could rewrite the history and science books like that one Coelacanth did in 1938 when it was found wriggling in that fisherman's net.
