A newly discovered ancient whale species, Janjucetus dullardi, challenges our understanding of whale evolution.

Its large eyes and surprisingly 'cute' appearance belie its carnivorous nature, a testament to its unique evolutionary path.
The fossil's discovery in Australia highlights the ongoing importance of paleontological research and citizen science contributions.
