Wild, a rich Cambrian fossil bed has been discovered in China! Many of the species are related to those in the Burgess shale, but 60% are entirely new.

Cambrian explosion may have occurred much earlier than previously thought The Cambrian explosion was an extraordinary phenomenon in the evolution of life on the planet that led to the emergence of many animal phyla and the diversification of species. During this period, som...

The Cambrian explosion: the period when all modern animal body forms first evolved. So called because it appeared to happen quickly; an illusion of the rocks, and it's just got longer!

Sea-Moth of the Cambrian: Ancient Predator Unearthed in Canada A fossil predator from half a billion years ago stuns scientists with its gills, three eyes, and a moth-like swimming style. Meet *Mosura fentoni*.

A newly discovered three-eyed sea predator with gills and claws lived 506 million years ago — and its fossil reveals incredible internal anatomy. #CambrianExplosion #FossilDiscovery #AncientLife

Our #OceanOptimism spans 500 million years! Before Mothra ruled the skies, Mosura fentoni ruled the Cambrian seas! This newly discovered extinct arthropod predator from Canada brings kaiju energy to early ocean life. #CambrianExplosion #AncientOceans #KaijuScience

Anomalocaris (Cambrian) – The apex predator of its time, using speed and intelligence to dominate the oceans. When faced with oppression, you don’t have to play by the old rules. Sometimes, you evolve faster, strike smarter, and refuse to be prey. 🦑⚡ #FossilFriday #CambrianExplosion
