40,000 Year-Old Baby Horse

Scientists have found a fossilized baby horse in Siberia. The foal is nearly perfect, looking like it could be sleeping. It was only 2 to 3 months old when it died in the Paleolithic period, 30 to 40,000 years ago. The permafrost in Siberia always stays below freezing, perfectly preserving and mummifying specimens.
