Experts believe that recently discovered in Nevada a strange fossil may be a fragment of an ancient beak a giant cephalopod, such as a huge octopus or squid. In this regard, the legends of the so-called kraken are recalled – a huge octopus capable of dragging ships into the depths of the sea along with their teams. So maybe the kraken existed on really? The first assumption of the existence of this ancient researchers announced the sea monster back in 2011. However today they have more evidence to confirm their controversial theory. Not only did they find the second example is weird located bones, so they also found a giant beak of the ancient squid or octopus next door. Paleontologist Mark Menamin I am sure that this unique find is a great success for science. A unusually located vertebrae next to the fossil prove the existence of a giant monster. However, among scientists, “theory Kraken “, unfortunately, did not receive wide recognition. For example, paleontologist David Fastovsky believes that this finding can be explain using less exotic means. Some experts say that these vertebrae belonged to the ichthyosaurus. This marine reptile lived during the Triassic period (from 250 up to 200 million years ago). Other scientists believe that the remains still belong to the representative of the giant cephalopods. Is the kraken back? Mark Menamin is sure that in any case the location of the bones could not form as a result natural processes such as dirt flows or compaction the soil. Even if the bones do not belong to the ancient cephalopod, rather all this is the result of his work, as modern squids love to build piles of bones, shells and other rubbish, as a disguise to enter your den. Organized the location of the bones is the strongest evidence that some rational creature specially located them, believes scientist. During a bone photo study (presumably belonging to the ichthyosaurus), it became apparent that many bones skeletons were not in their places, but were next to the “heap garbage, by someone or something created. In addition, aside double row of vertebrae located in the same configuration. Breast the skeleton cell has serious damage, as if something, perhaps the tentacles of a giant deep-sea monster, squeezed it into steel embrace. In addition, the fibers of the giant beak (found near the “exposition of ancient bones”), when compared with the fibers of beaks of modern squid are not in doubt that he belonged to the representative of this particular species, Menamin is sure. However skeptical scientists believe that in order to prove the size of the cephalopod to which the beak found the fragment is not enough, and the remaining evidence is also quite unconvincing.
