12 million year old sperm whale





The fossilized remains of a sperm whale were discovered in a newly cleared area of an Orange County landfill.




The paleontologist with Santa Ana engineering contractor Psomas noticed something unusual while doing a site survey May 20 at the Frank R. Bowerman Landfill. So how do whale fossils end up being found 1, feet above sea level and 15 miles from the shoreline? The whale fossils.

Researchers re-analyze million-year-old sperm whale fossil, find 'white whale'




Description:With a head almost three metres long, this 12m-year-old-physeteroid was about the size of a bull sperm whale and had wide, v-shaped jaws studded with conical teeth in both its upper and lower jaws. I didn't really know what it was at the time. That is part of the beauty of evolution. One of the most peculiar aspects of the living sperm whale is a mass of tissue cradled on its skull called the spermaceti organ. I found a bone outcropping.
