Ice Age frog found in Los Angeles
Rare excavations in La Brea Caves in Los Angeles have uncovered the first discovery of an extinct amphibian from the Ice Age called "Spea labreae." The fossils, discovered in 1929, date back approximately 60,000 years and offer a unique glimpse into the prehistoric climate of the region. The ideal preservation conditions of the bones helped identify a new species of extinct amphibian. This discovery is significant for understanding ancient climate changes and could contribute to the protection of currently endangered amphibians.
