Rhodocetus was an early whale that lived around 47 million years ago during the Eocene epoch. It was a transitional species, showcasing a mix of aquatic and terrestrial features. Rhodocetus had a streamlined body and limbs adapted for swimming, but its legs and feet still retained some ability for movement on land. This ancient whale was part of the evolution from land-dwelling mammals to fully aquatic whales. Fossils of Rhodocetus, found primarily in Pakistan, provide crucial evidence of the evolutionary shift in whales from life on land to the ocean. Its discovery helped scientists better understand the origins of modern cetaceans.
