EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library showcases a stunning computer artwork of Basilosauruses, taking us back in time to the late Eocene period, approximately 45-36 million years ago. These magnificent creatures were early whales that roamed the vast seas during this era. With their immense size and predatory nature, they ruled over other marine mammals as apex predators. Measuring up to an astonishing 18 meters in length, these Basilosauruses possessed remarkable similarities to modern-day whales. Like their descendants, they too relied on breathing air but intriguingly lacked a blowhole. Instead, they utilized nostrils for respiration while gracefully navigating through the depths of the ocean. The illustration beautifully captures these prehistoric giants swimming effortlessly underwater. The attention to detail highlights their sleek bodies and powerful presence as they traverse through an ancient aquatic world teeming with diverse fauna. As we delve into paleontology and explore Earth's history, this image serves as a reminder of the incredible diversity that once existed beneath our oceans' surface. It transports us back in time when Basilosauruses reigned supreme as carnivorous hunters within their marine ecosystem. Science Photo Library has expertly brought this fascinating duo of Basilosauruses to life through intricate computer artwork—offering us a glimpse into the mesmerizing world of prehistory and palaeozoology.
