The 46,000-year-old specimen was identified as a horned lark.




The bird was found in north-eastern Siberia at a site which also contained other frozen specimens.

Scientists studying the remarkably well-preserved remains of an Ice Age bird have identified the specimen as a horned lark.

Buried and frozen in permafrost near the village of Belaya Gora in north-eastern Siberia, the bird was discovered by local fossil ivory hunters, who passed it on to a team of experts, including Nicolas Dussex and Love Dalén from the Swedish Museum of Natural History, for testing.
Radiocarbon dating revealed the bird lived around 46,000 years ago, and genetic analysis identified it as a horned lark (Eremophila alpestris), according to a paper published Friday in the journal Communications Biology.
Dalén told CNN that research showed the bird may be an ancestor to two subspecies of lark alive today, one in northern Russia and the other on the Mongolian steppe.
"This finding implies that the climatic changes that took place at the end of the last Ice Age led to formation of new subspecies," he said.
The preservation of the bird is explained in large part by the cold of the permafrost, explained Dussex, but this specimen is in extraordinarily good condition.
"The fact that such a small and fragile specimen was near intact also suggests that dirt/mud must have been deposited gradually, or at least that the ground was relatively stable so that the bird's carcass was preserved in a state very close to its time of death," said Dussex.
The next stage of research involves sequencing the bird's entire genome, said Dalén, which will reveal more about its relationship to present day subspecies and estimate the rate of evolutionary change in larks.
Scientists working in the area have also found carcasses and body parts from other animals such as wolves, mammoths and wooly rhinos.

Preserved in death by nature itself

This is after God supposing created the earth about 6000 years ago.

Oga, which of the Gods are you referring to?


There is one which is ever merciful and one which is bloodthirsty and insatiable.

There is one which is ever merciful and one which is bloodthirsty and insatiable.

Which god is merciful and which one which is bloodthirsty and insatiable? Both God's or should are bloodthirsty and insatiable, apart from being vain, petty and egocentric.

Which god do you serve?

If you figure a way to live without serving a master, any master, then let the rest of us know, will you? For you'd be the first person in the history of the world.
