AUSTRALIA-SCIENCE-PALAEONTOLOGY-FOSSIL
A handout photo shows the fossil as Museum Victoria unveils the fossilised remains of the oldest mother ever discovered, in Melbourne on May 28, 2008. One of the biggest breakthroughs in palaeontology ever made, the specimen is a 375 million year old placoderm fish with embryo and umbilical cord attached, making the fossil the oldest example of vertebrate sex ever discovered. The fossil was found in the Gogo area of north-west Western Australia and has been named Materpiscis attenboroughi after the famed naturalist Sir David Attenborough.
