DINOSAUR CONGENER IN ARMENIA
Zoologists made an interesting discovery in mountain lakes in Shamlugh town of Lori region (northern Armenia). This animal with round head, fish-like torso and gradually widening tail is congener to prehistoric dinosaurs, a unique amphibian that has preserved in few places of the world. The discovery was kept under wraps for a long time fearing that the triton may become an object of bargain. Allegedly the Armenian dinosaur has been conveyed to the United Arab Emirates and was put in a terrarium in a hotel for tourists to see.
