Sunk by a German U-boat during World War II about 25 years after its construction, the wreck of the tanker Ashkhabad now rests in the Graveyard of the Atlantic. Sitting in 55 feet of water, the wreck is home to a vibrant community of marine life - like this loggerhead sea turtle!
Only two #paleostream sketches tonight, had technical difficulties and certain things took way too long.
Leviathanochelys (with Prognathodon) and Pelagornis with a dead ostrich and some lovebirds (yes fossils of all these animals come from the same locality)
