Rodhocetus

Rodhocetus (Rodho Whale) 2.5m Long

Asia: Pakistan

Eocene (47 MYA)

Carnivore

Marine Mammals

'''This creature gives us our best evidence in the development of evolution when otter-like creatures slowly turn into whale and dolphin-like mammals for Rodhocetus would have shown that its becoming more and more aquatic and soon would lose the need for hair and replace it with blubber instead, then their back legs will disappear eventually, their ears replaced with a blowhole the tail will turn into a fluke and their front paws into flippers. There are even signs that the teeth are jaws are developing ever more into that of a marine animal for the teeth are becoming more separate from each other and the jaws were getting longer too so that Rodhocetus would be able to catch it's prey more easily.'''

This animal may have only have traveled in areas in where it was not too far from the seafloor and so it may have lived around small shoreline islands making it easy to come in and out of sea whether it had a full belly or when it was soon hitting to nightfall so that if there were anything dangerous around in the waters like sharks or crocodiles near the mangroves that they would live in they would at least be safe on land mostly.
