Oldest reptile footprints found in Australia suggest animals moved to land earlier than thought.
Scientists discovered the oldest known fossil footprints of a reptile-like animal in Australia, dating back 350 million years, suggesting that animals evolved to live on land much faster than previously thought.
Found on a sandstone slab near Melbourne, the footprints show reptile-like feet with long toes and hooked claws, indicating the animal was about 2.5 feet long.
This discovery, published in Nature, marks the earliest evidence of claws, crucial for walking on hard ground, and challenges our understanding of when animals transitioned from water to land.
