Nevada Crocodile Fossil and Opposing Models
When the hand one is dealt is not playing well, cheat. After all, secular scientists seem to be doing that more and more. One example is the definition of archosaur. It has certain physical characteristics and includes crocodilians, dinosaurs, pterosaurs — and birds. Quite a broad category, and includes the tendentious assumption that birds evolved from dinosaurs. Evidence and logic differ about that last part.
Another species? That's nice. That also fits with biblical creation science models. Of course, like the assumption that birds evolved from dinosaurs and are related to archosaurs, secular scientists assume that crocodiles evolved even though there is no evidence of it. They also have to deal with the location of this one, as well as mixtures of organisms fossilized in "wrong" places. Genesis Flood models make sense of several things that are problematic for believers in deep time and atoms-to-archosaur evolution.
A new fossil pseudosuchian (expensive word for crocodile) species was discovered in Nevada. That is counterintuitive, since those critters do not live so far inland.

The effects of the Genesis Flood are seen worldwide with deposits of terrestrial animals, such as dinosaurs and many other kinds of animals, often mixed together with marine animals.Recently, an evolutionary story was published about ancient life along the coasts during the alleged “Age of Dinosaurs.” It included a new crocodilian animal unearthed from sediments in Nevada.Nathan Smith et al. defines this pseudosuchian (crocodile):
