Official synopsis Publisher
In 1938 the discovery of a large, unusual fish turned the scientific community on end. Dubbed a ‘living fossil’, the discovery of a coelacanth in a South African river shocked scientists around the world who thought this type of fish had died out millions of years prior during the process of evolution.

In Living Fossils: Evolution, The Grand Experiment Volume 2 delves into these provocative questions and more.
