And it comes from finding and studying the youngest species on earth. Old species have their place. Rediscovered in 1938, coelacanths use their fleshly lobed fins to paddle the deep sea caves of the Indian Ocean. Crocodiles with their ancient, almost battered-looking bodies, have hardly changed in 230 million years; nautiluses for almost 500 million years. Wildlife guide.
