Oh great. Now we have two missing links, one on either side of this interloper.

I’m taking bets that this whole thing is a bunch of garbage. Not that the show wont go on but that it will be all folly and inconclusive. Just like all the other “proof” that they have come up with over the last 50 years. They were either hoaxes or just bad information.

The fossil of the creature, named Darwinus masillae, was discovered in two parts at different times.

Maybe another Piltdown man? A human skull and the jaw of an orangutan mixed together and thought to be a missing link for a long time.

"We have kept it under wraps because you can't blither about something until you understand it. We now understand it. It is going to advance our knowledge of evolution,"

Translation:

"We had no use for another small, fossilized hominid, then somebody cooked up this scam. We will now use this to dupe all of you."

The fossil is reportedly so well preserved that some of its soft tissues such as skin and even its stomach contents can be examined.

At least 37 million years old?

Follow the money.... the phrase fittest to survive is the first in line for the government tit... Animal Farm and these leaches know full well they will wither on the proverbial vine... if they really had to produce their fairy tale hot steaming pot of primordial slime.

Where is the evidence that this species evolved into another species? It's still and adapid isn't it? It's not half one animal and half another one, so how is it a missing link? Aren't these scientists confusing adaptation with evolution? This is not an animal that evolved into a different animal, but rather an animal that changed and adapted to its environment, but still remained the same animal, an adapid.
