A 95 million years old crocodile was just dug up in Australia - with a Dinosaur still in its belly

pictures_in_history "It would have looked something like Ducky from The Land Before Time. So you can imagine poor little Ducky crawling up onto the side of the bank and then a crocodile coming up and chomping it."

Paleontologists in Queensland, Australia just came upon a nearly 100 million-year-old dinosaur — in the belly of a crocodile. This beaked ornithopod served as the last meal for onfractosuchus sauroktonos, an all-new species of Cretaceous crocodile that paleontologists have affectionately named "broken dinosaur killer." What's more, researchers made this lucky discovery by accident while moving earth with a loader in search of sauropod fossils. The loader significantly damaged the crocodile fossil — but in the process revealed the tiny dinosaur's bones sticking out of the crocodile's belly.

A 93-million-year-old crocodile has been uncovered by scientists with a baby dinosaur in its belly.

It has been dubbed the Confractosuchus Sauroktonos or "broken crocodile dinosaur killer" by experts and was found with the prehistoric baby in its stomach.

A report for Gondwana Research believes the huge croc grew to around 2.5m (6-8ft) and believe it died in a flood.

The reptile is said to have been 35% preserved with a "near-complete skull" and its fearful teeth.

Researchers examined it in more detail using 3D scans and X-rays

Joseph Bevitt, a co-author of the study, told Indy100: "In the initial scan in 2015, I spotted a buried bone in there that looked like a chicken bone with a hook on it and thought straight away that it was a dinosaur.

"The fossilised remains were found in a large boulder. Concretions often form when organic matter, or say a crocodile, sinks to the bottom of a river."

Scientists believe it was preserved because the mud surrounding the creature hardened because of the bacteria which were present.

A Very Victorian Two-Penny Hangover

During the Great Depreciation in London, people who couldn’t afford to sleep in a bad could pay twopence for a spot on a bench with a clothesline tied in front of them, so they could sleep while hanging over a rope . The term ‘hangover’ is universally understood to mean the disproportionate suffering that comes after a night of over-indulgence. But where does the term actually come from? One possible explanation is, somewhat strangely, Victorian England. During the Victorian era the practice of paying for a ‘two-penny hangover’ was incredibly popular among the country’s homeless population and the term ‘two penny hangover’ was so commonly used that it made its way into contemporary literature. A two-penny hangover is not the description of a very cheap night out, nor is it the amount it would cost you to get drunk in Victorian England. It is actually somewhere you could go to sleep if you were one of the thousands of homeless and destitute living in the country’s main cities at the tim...

Victim’s daughter persuaded serial killer to admit slaying 5 other women

Victim’s daughter persuaded serial killer to admit slaying 5 other women Serial killer Richard Cottingham is talking. My grandma was a serial killer’s victim. Richard Cottingham claimed responsible for two more Rockland deaths, adding to his total close to 100 The 75-year-old, who claims he is responsible for close to 100 killings and became known as the "Torso Killer" and the "Times Square Killer" for mainly targeting prostitutes, is talking to victims' families and an author who specializes in serial killers about how he murdered additional women, including at least two in Rockland. Lorraine McGraw, a 26-year-old mother, was killed by Cottingham in 1970, prosecutors say. McGraw's granddaughter, Sonia Ruiz McGraw of Queens, said Cottingham had promised to detail her grandmother's death and how he knew her.

Ira Einhorn was A counterculture Icon of 1960s Philadelphia -- Then He Brutally Murdered His Girlfriend

Ira Einhorn was A counterculture Icon of 1960s Philadelphia -- Then He Brutally Murdered His Girlfriend Ira Einhorn was a celebrated environmental activist and a radical voice in the anti-establishment movements of the 1960s and 1970s. But his messages of peace and love clearly didn't extend to his girlfriend of five years, Holly Maddux. When Maddux broke up with him in 1977, Einhorn threatened to throw her belongings into the street if she didn't come to pick them up. After Maddux went to retrieve her items, she mysteriously vanished. ⁠ ⁠ Then, about 18 months later, Einhorn's downstairs neighbor complained of a foul-smelling liquid dripping from the ceiling. Police soon found Maddux's badly beaten and partially mummified body in a trunk in Einhorn's closet. Not long after the grisly discovery, Einhorn fled to Europe, where he got married, settled down in a converted windmill in France, and evaded capture for 17 years. When he was eventually extradited and finally...

How Did Billy the Kid Die?

How Did Billy the Kid Die? Western outlaw Billy the Kid met his demise at about 12:30 a.m. on July 14, 1881, when he went to his friend Pete Maxwell’s home in Fort Sumner, New Mexico in search of a slice of beef for a late-night snack. As the story goes, Billy—just 21 years old, but already a murderer who had escaped from jail and killed two guards in the process—made the mistake of walking into a darkened bedroom, where Lincoln County Sheriff Pat Garrett was questioning Maxwell. Both Garrett and Billy were armed, but Garrett shot first, killing Billy. At least, that’s the most widely-accepted version of events. But over the years, some of the murky details surrounding the death of Billy—whose real name probably was Henry McCarty, though he later went by the alias William Bonney—have proven to be fertile ground for alternative theories. Some have claimed that Garrett shot the wrong man and Billy escaped. To complicate matters further, at least two men emerged decades later w...

In January 2014, Miriam Rodríguez's 20-year-old daughter Karen was kidnapped and murdered by a Mexican cartel — and Rodríguez spent the rest of her life tracking down her daughter's kidnappers, one by one.

Everest climber returns to mountain to bury woman he was forced to abandon 9 years ago

Everest climber returns to mountain to bury woman he was forced to abandon 9 years ago In 2007, Ian Woodall, a British climber, returned to Everest to bury the bodies of three climbers he passed on his way to the summit. One of the climbers, a woman named Francys Arsentiev, was still alive when Woodall reached her during his initial ascent. Her first words to him were"don't leave me behind." The grim reality, though, is that Woodall could not have done anything for her without jeopardizing his own life or the lives of his team members. He was forced to leave her to perish alone. Climbing Mount Everest has become much safer over the past decade thanks to advances in technology and climbing gear. Satellite phones allow a climber to stay in contact with base camp to get constant updates on weather systems in the area. A better understanding of exactly what kind and how much gear to take has also caused the death toll to drop dramatically. She was alone on a mountain shelf wh...

The Harrowing Story Of The Whaleship ‘Essex’ That Inspired ‘Moby Dick’

The Harrowing Story Of The Whaleship ‘Essex’ That Inspired ‘Moby Dick’ After the whaleship "Essex" was sunk by a vengeful sperm whale, its crew was left on the high seas for 90 days — causing them to resort to cannibalism. November 1820, a vengeful sperm whale barreled into the Nantucket whaleship "Essex," sending it to the bottom of the South Pacific. For the next 90 days, the crew of the "Essex" was left adrift in three rowboats on the high seas, where they quickly ran out of food and desperately resorted to cannibalism. When the men were finally rescued, the captain was found sucking on the bone marrow of a shipmate he had killed and eaten — his own cousin. See the illustrations and learn the harrowing story of survival that inspired the infamous “Moby Dick" In November 1820, a vengeful sperm whale barreled into the Nantucket whaleship "Essex," sending it to the bottom of the South Pacific.

The Twisted Saga Of Michael Peterson, Kathleen Peterson, And The Real Story Behind ‘The Staircase’

The Twisted Saga Of Michael Peterson, Kathleen Peterson, And The Real Story Behind ‘The Staircase’ In 2003, Michael Peterson was convicted of killing his wife Kathleen by beating her with a fire poker and throwing her down their back staircase — despite the police never finding the murder weapon nor any evidence of a concrete motive. But investigators soon learned that the Petersons were deep in debt and that Michael was unhappy with the way his work as a writer had stalled while his wife's career as a business executive had soared. And when prosecutors learned that Michael had exchanged emails with a male sex worker, they argued that Kathleen must have discovered the messages and confronted him about it, causing him to fly into a fit of rage, beat her about the back of the head, and leave her to die at the bottom of the stairs. But six years after Michael's conviction, a shocking new analysis showed that Kathleen Peterson had traces of feathers, wood, and cedar needle...

96-year Old Mexican great grandmother arrested with 12kg of Marijuana

Authorities say a 96-year-old Mexican woman has been arrested for trying to smuggle more than 10 pounds of marijuana across the border into Arizona. U.S. Customs and Border Protection officers say the woman from Nogales, Sonora, was attempting to cross the border Tuesday for a day of shopping. But an officer became suspicious and referred her for further inspection. That's when authorities say they found 10½ pounds of marijuana strapped to the woman's body from her torso to her legs. How did they get a 94 year old woman to be a drug mule? I would also guess that her family is somehow involved, because it's hard to imagine her doing it on her own.
