So, a fossil of a four-legged snake has been found.
​
We now have:
​
* Lizards.
* Four-legged snakes (Tetrapodophis amplectus).
* Two-legged snakes (Eupodophis descouensi).
* Snakes with vestigial hind limbs (boas and pythons).
* Just plain snakes.
​
The creationist search for a talking snake presumably continues unabated.

Creationist Take
Apparently this is the fossil of the serpent in Genesis ... before God cursed it to crawl on its belly.
​
It reminds me of that bit in The Name Of The Rose:
​
"Some time ago, in a German cathedral, I saw the skull of John the Baptist at the age of twelve."
​
"Really?" I exclaimed, amazed. Then, seized by doubt, I added, "But the Baptist was executed at a more advanced age!"
​
"The other skull must be in another treasury."
