    Fish eating Fish 'Fossilized'



    A fossil fish known as Mioplosus labracoides bit off more than it could chew when it tried to eat another member of its own kind over 50 million years ago. This pair of unlucky fish is displayed on the limestone plate where a lucky fossil digger found the "death scene."

    Another wonder from our ancient past.

    A salutary lesson in "don't bite off more than you can chew" LOL
