    💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🐋🦴 Chinese scientists piloting the submersible Fendouzhe in the southeast #IndianOcean found fossil sites spanning 1,200 km at depths up to 7,000 m.

    The #bones belong mostly to beaked #whales, with the oldest dating back 5.3 million years. Living #jellyfish, brittle stars, and bone-boring #worms still call these ancient carcasses home, allowing whale fall to serve as a #deepsea #ecosystem.
