Soviet Scientists Find
Fossilized Plant, Animal
Remains In Antarctica
MOSCOW, (iP>—Soviet scientists
in the Antarctic report they had
found fossilized plants and what
appeared to be animal bones pos
sibly 250 million years old.
Izvestia said the scientists from
the supply ship Ob landed by
plane on Horn Bluff on the east
erp coast of Antarctica.
A broadcast by Moscow radio
said fossilized wood was found in
the sands at Horn Bluff.
“These plants must have grown
there 200 to 250 million years
ago,” the broadcast said. “The
scientists have also unearthed
petrified remains resembling
bones of animals which probaby
inhabited Antarctica hundreds of
! millions of years ago.”
The nature of the animal life
believed found was not indicated.
There have been previous dis
coveries that showed Antarctica
once could support something be
sides its current bird and marine
life.
New Zealand geologists report
ed last December they had found
exposed seams of soft coal con
taining fossil leaves and fern
tree stems two feet in diameter.
That. meant the climate of Ant
arctica once was warm enough to
support all manner of animal life.
