Scientists have unveiled a 47-million-year-old fossil which could be the evolutionary "missing link" between humans and our very distant ancestors.
At a ceremony on Tuesday at the American Museum of Natural History in New York, Ida, a two-foot long lemur-like creature, was shown off to the world.
Discovered in Germany by a team of Norwegian scientists, Ida is 95% complete and believed to be 20 times older than most fossils which help explain human evolution.
