Default Shared noses: Extinct wildebeest relative was remarkably dinosaur-like

Shared noses: Extinct wildebeest relative was remarkably dinosaur-like

Scientists discover two unrelated, extinct animals share the same weird nose.


You might not expect to find many similarities between a mammal and a reptile, particularly if they lived millions of years apart. But scientists have found that two such extinct beasts share a rare, distinctive facial feature.

An extinct relative of the wildebeest and a duck-billed dinosaur both had bizarre crests on their heads.
