Scientists exploring the abyss off of Australia just discovered a sprawling whale necropolis. This cetacean cemetery was deposited over 5 million years and is crawling with undescribed species!
Had a blast covering this and working with @wwrfd.bsky.social: www.nationalgeographic.com/science/arti...
Deposited over millions of years, the whale necropolis is covered with deep-sea species, many of which are new to science.
