Thai researchers have unearthed a rare partially-fossilized skeleton of a Bryde's whale believed to be around 5,000 years old. A cyclist spotted the 12.5-meter-long skeleton in early November. Scientists are hoping the skeleton will provide information about whales of its kind after the fossils are carbon-dated.
