Coelacanth


For some reason I decided to look up Coelacanths again. I remember reading about their first rediscovery back in 1938, from a book I borrowed from the library in grade school. They're uglylooking things - but completely fascinating since they're living fossils long thought to be extinct for millions of years.

Yeah, not the most inspired drawing, I'd have to say. But it's a drawing! *runs away*
