(PHYSorg.com Archaeology & Fossils)

A handful of tiny teeth have led scientists to identify the most distant ancestor of today`s kangaroos. The fossils were found in the desert heart of Australia, and then hidden away, and almost forgotten in a museum collection for over three decades. The findings are published in the Journal of Vertebrate Paleontology.
