The most complete skeleton of a new species ever found. The scientists named the new species Llallawavis scagliai: "Llallawa". It is a near-complete fossil at over 90%.

'Terror Bird' Skeleton found

"The incredible, near-complete fossil shows that terror birds were more diverse in the Late Pliocene epoch than had been previously thought — an interesting fact given that the Late Pliocene falls toward the end of the birds' reign. Terror birds emerged about 52 million to 50 million years ago, and lived until about 1.8 million years ago, Degrange said. (Some scientists say that terror birds lived until 17,000 years ago, but evidence for this is dubious, he said.)"

Cool, Thanks for sharing! I don't know that much about the "Terror Bird" except from an episode of "Prehistoric Park".

^Prehistoric Park's terror bird was a Phorousrhacos.

 

I saw this a couple days ago. It's nice to find out the name though! :)
