A press release from the East Zealand Museum states that fossilized vomit is “crucial when reconstructing historic ecosystems, as a result of the finds present necessary data about which animals have been eaten by whom.”
Within the case of this historic pile of puke, scientists consider it belonged to an animal that had lately eaten numerous kinds of sea lilies. Sea lilies aren’t crops; they’re crinoids, a sort of marine invertebrate with feathered arms. Throughout the Cambrian by way of Permian intervals, crinoid forests coated areas of the seafloor.
An skilled who examined the vomit concluded that “the gathering consisted of at the very least two completely different species of sea lilies blended collectively in a spherical clump,” in accordance with the museum’s press launch.
