“Life was pretty nice during the Ediacaran, so the need for sex was rather limited,” said lead author Dr. Emily Mitchell from Cambridge’s Department of Zoology. “There was relatively little competition, so there was no real pressure to change anything.”
Kein Wunder, dass das mein liebstes Erdzeitalter ist.

Earth’s Earliest Animals May Have Thrived Too Easily to Evolve
Fossils from some of the oldest-known animals on Earth, dating from 574 million years ago (Ediacaran period), suggest…

#Fossils reveal many complex #animals existed before the #CambrianExplosion
More than 539 million years ago, from the #Ediacaran Period, soft, clarinet-shaped animals anchored themselves to the seafloor on disc-shaped bases, swaying alongside stalked animals resembling worms and baskets. These woodwindlike creatures are just a few of those coming to life from a treasure trove of newly discovered fossils in southwestern #China.

Spectacular fossil treasure trove pushes back origins of complex animals https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2026-04-03-spectacular-fossil-treasure-trove-pushes-back-origins-complex-animals
The dawn of the #Phanerozoic: A transitional fauna from the late #Ediacaran of Southwest China https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.adu2291
"A newly discovered fossil site in southwest China has transformed our understanding of how complex animal life emerged on Earth, revealing that many key animal groups had already evolved before the start of the #Cambrian Period."

"That loss of diversity in the late #Ediacaran has long been recognized as the #KotlinCrisis, making it the first #extinction event that #animals ever experienced.

The Long and the Weak of It—The #Ediacaran Magnetic Field https://eos.org/articles/the-long-and-the-weak-of-it-the-ediacaran-magnetic-field
"Our planet’s magnetic field was remarkably weak then, and new research suggests that that situation persisted for roughly 3 times longer (70 million years) than previously believed. That negligible magnetic field likely resulted in increased atmospheric oxygen levels, which in turn could have facilitated the observed growth of macroscopic organisms"
