A tiny prehistoric baleen whale species, Janjucetus dullardi, dating back 25 million years, has been discovered near Australia. This human-sized whale had sharp teeth and large eyes. The found partial skull, including ear bones and teeth, helped classify it as a mammalodontid. Researchers believe the fossil was from a juvenile, around 2 metres in length, providing insights into whale evolution.
