The Riddle of the Venestega

Scientists reveal that Ventastega is a missing link between Tiktaalik and tetrapods such as Acanthostega, even though “Ventastega lived approximately during the same era as Acanthostega” and “the earliest tetrapods probably evolved between 5 million and 7 million years before Tiktaalik

So Ventastega is his own father’s grandfather as well as the father of his own brother. Someone call Oedipus, because this one is better than the riddle of the Sphyx.

Thanks to Charles Johnson for bringing this to our attention, but I wish that he had excerpted the end of the article as well.
