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?

The same circumstances that can preserve small details in the fossil, even fragments of tissue described here would preserve be it 10k years or millions of years, absence of light, air, microbes, etc. This preservation is not unusual.
