Safari Ltd. Coelacanth Figurine - Detailed 5.5" Prehistoric Fish Figure - Educational Toy for Boys, Girls, and Kids Ages 3+

The Coelacanth is considered the oldest fish known to science. Thought to have become extinct during the Cretaceous period, two types of Coelacanth were discovered in 1938. It is now considered a living fossil, having evolved into its current form roughly 400 million years ago. Because both of the only known species of Coelacanth are threatened, it is considered the most endangered order of animals in the world.
