Fossils of Some of The Oldest Most Amazing Extinct Animals

So how much you wonder about the oldest fossils of the most amazing extinct animals? Is it like me who really wanted to know about which animals is actually the oldest one that ever lived on earth? And also the big question of how old is actually the oldest fossil found on earth? Knowing that must be some kind of mystery solving i might say, but also adding the curious value into it, as in the current announced oldest fossil found on this very planet could well not be the oldest one, it might just happen to be the oldest that are found, but what about the ones that are not yet discovered by humans? That is something we have to wait to find out i guess. But the good news is that in the mean time, we should accept that this set of fossils below is the current oldest fossils of the most amazing extinct animals. 

Ancient Spider Attack

First of all, let's check out this fossil of an ancient spider attacking its prey which believed to be a 100-years-old amber that is one of its kind, too.

“This was a male wasp that suddenly found itself trapped in a spider web,” George Poinar Jr., a professor emeritus of zoology at the university, said in a written statement. “This was the wasp’s worst nightmare, and it never ended. The wasp was watching the spider just as it was about to be attacked, when tree resin flowed over and captured both of them.”

Million year old fossil (bilaterian)

And here comes the next one, it is actually a little weird for me, you see University of Alberta scientists say they’ve proven animal life existed 30 million years earlier than previously known. And the proof, just by this fossilized tracks left by a small creature known as a bilaterian, 

The fossil of a mesosaurus an aquatic reptile
(April 11, 2012 in Pinamar, Uruguay)

It was discovered by U of A scientists in Uruguay. Geomicrobiologist Kurt Konhauser said the fossil is dated between 585 and 600 million years ago, making it the earliest proof of moving animal life on Earth by at least 30 million years.

1.9Million-Year-old Human Fossil

Here it comes the none other but the human fossil, so it is 1,9 Million years old of age, and that is real human, could you believe that about 1,9 million years ago there are actually humans already living in this planet earth?

From the picture above, it is where A South African scientist shows the tooth hidden in a rock excavated from an archeological site three years ago. The remains of a juvenile hominid skeleton, of the new Australopithecus (southern ape) sediba species, are the "most complete early human ancestor skeleton ever discovered."

People from that age must be interesting to learn about, how did they live? What did they eat? Right? I'm not sure if we could or maybe will someday be able to find out more about that, let's just hope so.

This is probably the one we have been waiting for, the actual oldest fossils in the world, it is found in Ancient Australian beach, what's so sorry for my word, funny about it, is that the fossilized stuff are not just merely its track, it was its cells in between the cemented sand grains.

Fossils of oldest most amazing extinct animals bacteria cells

Microfossils found in Australia show that more than 3.4 billion years ago, bacteria thrived on an Earth that had no oxygen, a finding that boosts hopes life has existed on Mars, well that makes sense, right?

closer look at the fossil of bacteria cell

Researchers from the University of Western Australia and Oxford University say the remains of microbes, located in ancient sedimentary rocks that have triggered debate for nearly a decade, have been confirmed as the earliest fossils ever recorded.

Fossils are everywhere if you would try to a little harder to find them, do you agree? Probably not, but if you think about it, it is actually true, what i mean is, what happens to me for instance, every now and then, my family would found a dead gecko's fossil trapped inside the door mechanism, or any other small places where they would potentially go. But that is not the case here, what i'm sharing to you above is that fossils of some of the oldest most amazing extinct animals in the history of the human race, or even the earth to be exact.
