55 million? I highly doubt it.

Was there a large, baldheaded skeleton of a man with a shotgun unearthed nearby?

What a rotten sentence, but you're smart, you get the joke.

Sounds to me like one of those modern, deformed rabbit that atheist scientists aged scientifically because their theory of evolution is being disproved by leaps and bounds in the scientific community who are honestly looking for the truth about our origin.

"Gomphos gives us valuable information about the anatomy of early rabbits - it tells us what they looked like.

Ah, they looked like rabbits? Is there more than one way to envision a rabbit? I think not.

Dr. Asher refused to confirm whether the most-asked question at the press conference was:

"What's up, Doc?"

"Gomphos had long hindlimbs, just like a modern rabbit The fossilised skeleton of a rabbit-like creature that lived 55 million years ago has been found in Mongolia, Science magazine reports. Gomphos elkema, as it is known, is the oldest member of the rabbit family ever to be found. "



Does this qualify for GGG ping or maybe just the digest?

"Oldest fossil 'rabbit' unearthed (55 million years ago)"

Forget the stupid 'rabbit' - I want to know who the guy is that dug up this 'rabbit' over 55 million years ago and is just now getting around to telling us about it. Talk about being slow, or else REALLY good at keeping a secret.

Maybe we could get him to go to work for the Los Alamos labs or CIA.

;^D

I have no idea what you're talking about.


So here's a gomphos with a pancake on his head.

I do understand what you are saying, but here is a rabbit with pancakes on his head anyway.
He's Oolong and has his own website. http://www.fsinet.or.jp/~sokaisha/rabbit/rabbit.htm

The common ancestry of both rabbits and rodents lends scientific weight to my calling rats dumpster bunnies. Since I am not a scientist I had always thought of rabbits emerging as a separate line the late Eocene rather then in the early part. Does Gomphos refer to the large fixed teeth?

...ever see the old film, "Night of the Lepus" (or something like that)? It was about giant, carnivorous rabbits who attacked and ate people, IIRC.

Another old fossil was found wearing a petrified pant suit. But I digress.

They should make this "rabbit" fossil the mascot for the soon to be launched Attack Submarine, the USS Jimmy Carter. Seems appropriate somehow.

Surprisingly they looked like rabbits.

Yeah, but did it "taste just like chicken"?
