They have outlived many creatures. On land and in the oceans.

all the dinos went extinct and then these guys said
"Nah, imma do my own thing"

[PeterJamesVillegas]

Relicanth, a Fossil Fish, or whatever you call it: This creature might one day outlive us.

The Coelacanth decided to smile for the camera at the final minute (as if to say I will be around even when you hooman are long gone).

[Xueqs]

Its cool they add an animal based off the relicanth in pokemon

[MiniforceRailfan]

Now that’s an Animal that Outlived the Dinosaurs

My favorite thing about coelacanth is that there are idiots out there who use it's existence as proof that megalodon still exists. It's ridiculous.

Also, I absolutely love that picture at the end. It's a great example of "friend shaped" phrase.

Fun fact
This fish wad back then larger and was prey of spinosaurus

Imagine turning around in that dark deep water and shining ur light and u just see something so scary. Being in open dark water is the most frightening thing

[Acklaystudios]

The dinosaurs: AHHH!
That one coelacanth: I aint dying without a round 9

This is an ACTUAL living fossil unlike others 😅 we thought they were full on extinct only to find the exact same species alive and well 😂 and now we know theres plenty of them

Whoever manages to produce a superdwarf variant will probably be the biggest name in the aquarium industry.

The scientific community will always be the most short sighted people in existence

[juliedagustine]

We really know very little about the life we share this this world with. We make "discoveries" all the time.

[cartoonlizardtheanimator]

The Coelacanth took "I will come back" to a whole nother level 💀💀💀💀💀💀💀

[reith]

This fish has actually been thought to go extinct twice. There are two different species and both are still alive though very rare

[shafialanower]

I can’t believe we had to wait this long for a major 1 recap podcast

every 14 year old when they study more than 1 hour

Survived an extinction event, can live up to 100 years...
I swear, the deep ocean is like a whole other planet. 👾
