Forgotten Species Of Scotlands Sea

Fossils Donated by amateur collectors have helped experts to identify a previously unknown species!!

A large group of researchers led by the University of Edinburgh have been looking at fossils found in Scotland.
Fossils of the new species were discovered more than 50 years ago on the isle of Skye by Brian Shawcross. Ichthyosaur, which were creatures similar to dolphins. They lived in the sea and ate fish and small reptiles. This creature lived 170 MILLION YEARS AGO !!!!! At that time the Isle of Skye was joined on to the rest of the UK.
In honour of its finder, the species was named in the Scottish Journal of Geology as Dearcmhara shawcrossi. ( The first part is Scottish Gaelic for marine lizard )

Kaylan has Read Big Cats

I have just read a book called big cats it is all about diffrent kinds of wild cats in the world.My favorite part was about the black panther I did not know that it is really a black leapord and I did not know it had spots like a leapord my other favorite part was the leapords I did not know it draged its food up a tree to eat it.I really enjoyed reading this book it had lots of facts and I learnt more things than I already knew.But it is sad that there are only 200 siberian tigars left!

I would give this book 10 out of 10 and everyone should read it!!
