this Aug. 11, 2010, photo released by Chile's Paleontological Museum of Caldera,
a paleontologist from the museum prepares a whale fossil at the site where many
prehistoric whale fossils were discovered in the Atacama Desert near Copiapo,
Chile. The fossil is enclosed in a plaster jacket to protect it during transport
back to the museum. More than 2 million years ago, scientists say, scores of whales congregating
off the Pacific Coast of South America mysteriously met their end. Maybe they
became disoriented and beached themselves. Maybe they were trapped in a lagoon
by a landslide or a ferocious storm. Maybe they died there over a period of a
few millennia. But somehow, they ended up right next to one another, many just
several yards apart, entombed over the ages as the shallow sea floor
was driven upward by geologic forces and transformed into the driest place on
the planet. Today, the whales have emerged again atop a desert hill more than
half a mile from the surf, where researchers have begun to unearth
one of the world's best-preserved graveyards of prehistoric whales.
