Coelacanth (living pre-historic fish) Article

[5150]

My mate keeps interesting nature articles from the newspapers for me, mostly to do with sea life. He brought one into work this morning that was in the Daily Mail before Xmas. Pretty good article, especially if you're not familiar with Coelacanths.

Had a quick search of the mails site and the article is on there so I thought I'd post it here - Curse of the fish that time forgot: Believed to be extinct for 65million years - it returned with chilling consequences | Mail Online
