Lizard fossil 100 million years old unearthed

Researchers have found a rare fossil of a reptile that lived 100 million years ago that shows undigested food in its gut, shedding light on how small and medium-sized reptiles preyed on other animals. The stomach contents of the fossilized lizard, Yabeinosaurus, contained a 13-centimeter-long crayfish, a species of crustacean popular on dining tables today, according to scientists from the China University of Geosciences.
