Paleontologists unveil a fossil, believed to be over 10 million years old, of an ancient crocodilian species in Lima on Nov. 28, 2024. The fossil, discovered in Peru's fossil-rich desert region of Ica, lacks part of its left limb and tail but is notable for its overall preservation quality. Gharials, a type of crocodilian, currently existed only in Asia but discoveries show they also resided in South America in ancient times.
