A new study based on well-preserved fossils of an ancient snake called Najash has unlocked the mystery of their evolutionary path. The study reveals that early snakes possessed back legs for 70 million years. The discovered fossils will also help to resolve mysteries over when snakes began their transition to their modern form. Researchers created the 3D preserved skull of Njash that unveils more information on how the flexible skull of snakes evolved from their lizard ancestors, a landmark feature of modern snakes.
