Paleontologists have announced the discovery of a remarkably preserved fossil of a new species of giant Cretaceous frog, dubbed Beelzebufo rex. The specimen, found in the Mahajanga Basin of Madagascar, includes a near-complete skeleton and, most crucially, fossilized soft tissue that reveals the animal's final meal.
Analysis of the stomach contents showed the remains of a juvenile dinosaur, providing definitive evidence that these massive amphibians were apex predators in their ecosystem. This finding offers new insights into the dietary breadth of late-Cretaceous fauna and the evolutionary pressure that led to the development of such large-bodied amphibians.
