The immaculately preserved remains of a 39-foot whale ᴜпeагtһed in Thailand is thought to be between 3,000 and 5,000 years old, experts have estimated

The immaculately preserved remains of a 39-foot whale ᴜпeагtһed in Thailand is thought to be between 3,000 and 5,000 years old, experts have estimated.

Researchers found the partially-fossilised bones — which belonged to a Bryde’s whale — some 7.5 miles from the coast in Samut Sakhon, weѕt of Bangkok.

Bryde’s whales, which can grow to 13–28 tons in weight, live in tropical and warm temperate seas worldwide and are still found in the waters around Thailand today.

Over the last 10,000 years, zzz. tectonic activity has raised the region some 13 feet relative to sea level. This explains how the whale ended up on what is now land.
