New extinct crocodile species Herugavialis cairensis identified from Great Sphinx site

Researchers have identified a new extinct crocodile species, Herugavialis cairensis, from material associated with the Great Sphinx of Egypt. The species is notable for lacking the tip of its snout, a feature paralleling the monument's condition, and could reach up to 6 meters in length with long, thin snouts. This is a paleontological discovery; its implications for understanding ancient ecosystems or the monument's history remain unclear.
