Ancient dolphins had very long faces

[DavidBrown]

Some dolphin species in the last few million years had snouts that were up to five times longer than their heads (botos have snouts two times longer). They lived in times of rising and warming seas when having extended snouts could have been useful for sweeping through schools of fast-moving fish.

Two years ago I've photographed this fossil skull of an iniid dolphin at San Diego natural history museum.

Nice. I think I'll steal the idea and use it for a fantasy creature.
