The approximately 66-million-year-old Fund had the largest soft-shelled Egg that was ever found and the second largest overall, the researchers said in a Wednesday in the journal "Nature" published an article.

Chilean researchers had discovered the 28 x 18-centimeter-large, shriveled Fossil, 2011, in the Antarctic. Since then, it was stored in a Museum in Chile. The helpless scientists have dubbed the mysterious Fund is simply "the thing".

for Years, was puzzled, what could it have with "the thing" to yourself. Until 2018, the US paleontologist Julia Clarke, Co-author of the article came to the idea that it could be an Egg. Due to the size and there's no skeleton Inside it was, was not this Thesis is not necessarily obvious. Chemical analyses confirmed the acceptance but now.

researchers believe it is a Mosasaurus-Egg

The researchers suggest that it comes from a type of reptile that has measured at least six feet - probably from a Mosasaur. This is corroborated theory of finds in the vicinity of the ice: There, researchers discovered Mosasauriern the skeletons of Baby. imago/Science Photo Library A Mosasaurus.

"It is very rare that a fossil soft-shelled eggs which are so well preserved," said lead author Lucas Legendre, the AFP news Agency. "We did not know that such eggs are able to reach such an enormous size." Soft-shelled eggs are laid by present-day lizards and snakes.

To lived this time, a lot of dinosaurs in the Antarctic, however, the majority were for an Egg of this size is too small, said Legendre. The discovery could change the Knowledge about the life and reproduction of the marine animals of this era,has convinced the researchers. Has it lied?
